I don't think "everyone" here is mean. I'm not and most of the people I know here aren't. Some people are mean because they're afraid or insecure or just plain mean. We don't have to have anything to do with them.

people are all fighting and yelling and i just want nice people to talk to.

Hi Sarah,
I'm nice. :-) I'd like to get to know you.

I have been silly today- which has really helped me, because I am iin a pretty bad place with my illness today, and having a place to be silly among my friends has really helped. I think you'll find we are actually a pretty nice bunch!

How are you?

people are just fighting and it's making me sad because when i'm trying to make friends they ignore me because they would rather be mean.

i'm okay i just want friends because i left this group and the personality disorders group because of davenger.
and then i came back and she said she was leaving so i thought people would be nice and want to talk to me.

but how are you?
you said you are having a bad day. i'm sorry.

Ah, well the davenger crisis will be over soon. Today was just fall-out from last night- but I am mostly so sorry that one person like davenger can make you feel unwanted. Yes, the rest of us- some of us- got a little distracted, but wait till it calms down tomorrow or the next day- you'll see, we get back to normal! It must be really hard to be a new person to this group when the boards are in an uproar like this. I am lucky that when I joined things were relatively stable, so I had a day or two (at least!) to adjust to things. :-)

I for one am glad you are here. Thanks for asking after me. Yeah, I've had a shitty day- and tomorrow is my birthday and it's not promising to be any better. But it's mostly just work stress, so I think it will be over soon.

Come on down to the main boards- maybe tomorrow when things have calmed down a bit- and introduce yourself. I think you'll meet a lot of nice people there!

okay maybe i should just sign on tomorrow. i will just read fmylife stories. haha.

aw i'm sorry. well i think your birthday will have to be better because birthdays are always good, right? 8]

okay thanks.
i'm feeling better now that i see that there are a couple of nice people here. 8]
