Depression Support Group

This whole discussion is exactly why i stopped posting here. I learned my lesson right away that being suicidal and writing anything here is only going to make anyone more suicidal with the lack of understanding. I prefer messages and hugs since they're friendly. I've even had to delete comments on my journals because of such obnoxious comments. There are a lot of people on this site who think they know everything. I just find people i like and stick with them and thank God when i find them...but it does take time, just like in real life. Best wishes to you and hang in there, feel free to write to me if you want, i always respond. xo

Wow. Just ...Wow.

Someone said, "attacked" and many repliers just kind of rolled with it. If you felt as though you were attacked, my apologies. It wasn't my intention to offend anyone at any point during my post. Hopefully you will accept this peace offering?

Let me clarify...
Again, I was frustrated because I reached out to dozens of people via email and IM's and was getting nowhere. Was this ALL of you? Obviously not. But, I'm sure many of you know what it's like to feel isolated, depressed and morbidy suicidal and all you want is to connect and have a conversation with someone, you know? And, when you're not getting anywhere, I'm sure you also know how frustrating it is--especially when you have nothing left to hold on to.

A few of you had supportive things to say and I would like to thank you for your friendship. Maybe we'll talk sometime soon?

I hope you all have the ability to see where I was coming from and hopefully this post will come to a close now.

Thank you emvee for coming back and explaining.

I can't speak for everyone but if I were to have received a private message or IM hit from someone I didn't know here I would be very wary as there have been members from the past here who have come back as "new" and completely fooled many of us, hence putting our trust in jeopardy. I know you couldn't have known this, but I am sure you can understand that feeling of fear.

DS is like any other place....there will be kind people and there will be nasty people. Once you have been around for awhile you will be able to see this. You have to understand that when people ...depressed people...feel "attacked" we go into defense mode, and whether that is what was happening or not, everyone sees thing differently.

All my best to you emvee and I hope that you find the help/support/friendship you are seeking here!

tigerkitten- this is exactly what i mean in my "quit talkin shyt" bulletin. everyone just puts words in your mouth and acts like complete UNSUPPORTIVE people. yet they wanta bash me in my bulletin because im right an spelled shit with a y get over it. i agree to this and emvee .. im NOT a negative person i just get upset with people bringin others down

Agree with Kaino.

tigerkitten -
You seem very intelligent & cool & these main boards would benefit from someone like you posting. Just a thought if you have some free time.

Thanks for clarifying your intentions emvee, and the apology is accepted. I hope you stick around and see the good in people here. Sure, there are a few people who are just plain mean on here, but MOST are compassionate, and want to help. ((((HUGS)))) even if you don't want them...you will see that they help too....

sorry I dont respond to im's, emails etc... if I dont know or know of the person.

Until today I havent heard of nor seen you post or reply anything.

I have strong showders and am w understanding so if you must as you have abuse me instead of every one that you dont know and who dont know you.

Sorry but even the people on DS depression support group live in difrent time zones and they have lives and thier own lives to live.
as like myself be grateful that anyone would take time out of thier life and away from thier family life to spend a moment w me/us on DS.

did you over reach the suger pill and take the crab apple pill this morning. ya from time to time I too half to adjust my additute.

Iv already worn out 1 tread mill to work out moments of anger & frustraitions.
maybe you could use a punching bag and print out photo of person of the day that your upset w and tape it to the punching bag and/or take photo on your floor to walk on.

Other than Healthy Places and DS, I dont know of any chat groups where the main topic isnt about gender and sex and pron and con - scams. even my space is more like a dating site to get sex thur so called rain day friendships.

Read, vent, jounal, share and uililize the board so we can get to know the other you.

befor logging off I read the replys to your post which I hadn't done befor I replyed to your post. Things will work out they always do if given a chance.

you delete all your friends, and never respond to hugs.

you keep adding people...

but you dont do anything.

so...

umm...

stop that.
