Do You Think Posting On A Forum, Is Good For Your Brain?

I do!
I think anything that makes you think, inspires you to compose a reply or a view, is good exercise for your brain.

Would you agree with me or has posting on forums blown your brain to bits!

I largely agree with you.

The only time in which it fails to be useful is when things become a little, er, personal and tempers flair and when an argument which may only last a few minutes in a normal 1-1 debate might be stretched out for hours on end. We've all seen this happen, and many of us have been involved in such altercations, and I'm not sure whether this is an entirely useful exercise to test/develop resilience

It can certainly enliven your day, and at times it can even change your blood pressure...

Re: Do You Think Posting On A Forum, Is Good For Your Brain?

It frequently makes me laugh - and that is supposed to be good for you!

On the whole I would agree that a forum such as this one is good. There are a lot of knowledgeable people in here, and I have learned a lot since I joined.

The people in here are friendly - most of the time - and I have been given, and seen others given, fantastic support and advice in troubled times - which is excellent.

I think that a forum informs you of many things you may have missed. We learn a lot from chatting to to people we may never meet; things like health care & potential dangers to ourselves, our pets & our homes.
I also think forums can provide a lot of laughs, so for most people they are good for our brains & our health!

I enjoy the funny posts, some really make me laugh out loud. That must be good for something.
However I have learnt some things also.
The members here are very supportive too.

Certainly makes me think very often, makes me laugh and worries me at times. Think that stretches the brain muscle.
