I just became a member here, and it's just like any other message board on the net- people are going to disagree. The "Doug Please" post, is getting more attention, than the purpose for being here; to find some support. I feel so damn low, I can hardly keep my head up, and everyone is worried about sabbatoge. Why even bother with that post. I'm here to get help, not bother with childish games. Everyone that is here, has a bad day, or year, or decade, or however long it's been, and as far as I can tell, needs a 'pick me up', not a fight. I have enough fights with myself, to be bothered with a fight with people I've never "physically" met. I'm trying to find a way to fix the problems in my life, not keep them around. And I think many would agree. And EVERYONE is aloud there opinion. Even some jackass with nothin' better to do than harass

PEACE LOVE HAPPINESS

These things happend from time to time. I'm sorry you are hurting:)

deleted_user 11/27/2007

i totally agree w/ ya, steph, but once you've been on here for a while and you see these people posting all this negative stuff about other members, well, they're talking about people you really care about, so how do you not say something?? and when its the same people doing it all the time... we're all here cause we're down for whatever reason, but a lot of the time when people post they need help they get a lotta hugs and personal messages, so their post doesn't seem to have such a big reaction. and sometimes people just bullshit over meaningless posts all night just cause its better than thinking about the serious stuff going on around them, you know??
if you need anything, i'm here. welcome.

I'll back Mego up on this. We often talk to each other and offer more support in hugs and PM's than on the boards, so you don't necessarily see all the good that is here. But it is here, my journals and hug book are full of support from a lot of people, including some I've never talked to. I try to post support on the boards as much as possible, but often find that it is more comfortable for the other person to see it privately. Welcome to the boards.

I understand why it happens, I just don't get it. Humantiy is just strange sometimes, with the urge to bicker for the sake of bickering, or attention, or whatever it may be. See, now I got myself in a rant..... UUUUUGGGGGHHHHHHHH

deleted_user 11/27/2007

So why are you going to the doctor to fix this problem if the thought depresses you. Are you sure you are doing the right thing?

deleted_user 11/27/2007

awww..don't be put off by posts like that. :)

they get lotsa hits cause...well...lol different reasons, i guess. boredom, frustration, irratating non-helpful people. amusement (GUILTY lol)

but really...many people here are wonderful and sincere.

most support is done off the board, IMO. it's a great site as long as you keep your expectations realistic.

hope u feel better :)

Belive it or not, in the 6 hours (on and off) that I've been here, I've met some cool people, and gotten good advice. I just want one day without conflict, and I just can't seem to escape it...

deleted_user 11/27/2007

Welcome to DS.....today is a nutty day. Sorry you had to see that. The good of this site outweighs the bad. Wish you well.

Going to the doctor doesn't depress me, it scares the shit out of me. 3 days ago I almost took that final step and said fuck it all, and took that last breath of life. instead, I'm trying to find better ways to cope.

Whatever you do, don't try to find relief in mangos!

deleted_user 11/27/2007

dammit, nada... here we go w/ the mangos again... see what you started??

deleted_user 11/27/2007

Mangos? I think I just laughed... If I remember what that feels like

deleted_user 11/27/2007

Well, maybe it's exactly the change you will need to start feeling better. Doctors of course have to hurt us before they heal us, but I hope it works to help you feel better.

JESUS, I came back and the replies were in the hundreds!!

I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
