Does 'agitated' mean without humour ?

.

I wrote this same thing to a friend on here yesterday. But Keep I hope you will stay for me, or at least send me messages. I have gained so much help from them. I too just find this other shit so frustrating. But there are some of us that desire the samething.

I hope you stay.. not only for the newbies, but for the ones who are truly here for help and support.

I apologize. I am just upset that at the idea that we are not safe here. It is hard to drop something when it is just so wrong. I do truly apologize if I have made you uncomfortable. I think it would be most healing and put an end to everything if someone would just own up to their serious wrong, apologize and take steps to make it right and I apologize if I am being a thorn.

I, too, hope you stay. Try to remember, the great thing about forums is your ability to ignore the babble and focus on the support.

Yes, this is going on to long. Savery1 needed help, the true type that hepls him be a better father, and he took it and his heart open some more. Sounds like he no longer wants to use a belt. His kids life will be better for the loving advise he took in.
People had such strong emotions about the subject and it really took on a life of it's own. Such bashing went on. It was overboard. Now it continues with more bashing. Seems like it is not going to stop.
Perhaps people are now using it as a platform to get there fustrations out about their stress filled life.
I want to stay away from the bashing though..I have wanted to respond, but in the end it would not do me or anyone else a bit of good.
Hopefully by Monday, things will feel alittle different here. Hang in there everyone, this to shall pass. Much Aloha.

I am a brand new member going thru the most difficult time of my life and I hope someone can share thier experiences on dealing with this lonliness and isolation that I feel setting in my apartment. This is my one week anniversary from moving out and I miss my two little ones terribly and feel horrible for what I done to my wife.

I think what I am getting discouraged about is the no nonsense posts that go up to push down the others. I value humor, for it is what is needed in our lives. I value what many of you have added in my recovery. I just dont see the need to post anything for awhile. Like I said I will monitor and help where I can.

So you are a Monitor ?

.

Thanks BigBeeper. I am done.

Good bye

.

#10 Goodbye ?

Did you say "Hello" ?

.

Perhaps you will find strength in speaking that.I said my peace.I also said my appologies.I do not look for forgiveness for my opinions but hope that wwe can learn to help even when it hurts.
I hope and pray that you will stay and find the strength that is here even when we hurt or feel agitation when others disagree.
My only wish,other than saying what I thought rather than hold it in(a problem I rarely have but only when I think it will hurt another),is that others will see they can say what they think without it becoming a fight.Say your peace and agree to disagree.If you really think another is wrong,you don't have to fight just speak it and move on.

Ok Bigbeeper - you just pushed ME to far! I am now PISSED! You just chasded away a GREAT member of this site!
Why the Fu*k are you doing this! Why? This is not helpful!
Damn it! Just stop it!!!

As someone who has been here 7 months (and 1,700 posts later) I can tell you that we get a thread every couple of weeks that is controversial and sets off a firestorm of angry posts. People get a little bent out of shape for a few days and I have often felt 'agitated'. But it does pass and thing get back to normal.

I have no idea what has occurred here in the last few days since I've been out of town but hang in there, it will return to normal in short order. Cheers.

There is no "normal".

Stable would be a better choice of word or "stability".

If everyone expected things to be "normal" and move along at the same steady pace, then perhaps there would be no need for such a Discussion Board.
