*hugs*

hugs to you annie. I am sorry you feel like this. I have been replying to threads that arent about fighting all morning. Maybe alot of them are about members leaving,ect. but there is the advice questions as well to answer. Sorry you are discouraged. It runs in waves like this and then calm waters again. Here is a life preserver..just ride the waves out.

sorry.

i have only been here a few days and have already been misunderstood, that is my doing and i hope i have made ammends. i would never hurt anyone on purpose! lets all have a good day.

sorry you feel this way. from what i see the boards can be a bit out of order sometimes but i think that if you can't get the support through the discussion board due to this, just stick to your friends on here and try to get the support you need through them. i see the fighting going on but i can also see the great friendships that have come out of this site. x

Hi Annie,
You know, it is funny, because the only posts that relate to fighting are the ones like this where someone talks about all the fighting getting them down. I don't know if it is just luck of the draw, but the topics I end up following don't seem to track these fights. I guess what I am trying to say is, hang in here because it is possible to find a lot of support and to give it too. I find I perk up a lot, no matter how down I am, when I can see a way to support someone else. Love and hope bloom when you pass it on. The good stuff's here. I promise :0)((((((((((annie))))))))

whoops!...I meant to say the only posts that relate to fighting that I ENCOUNTER are the ones talking about people being sad because of the fighting...

So I guess I am contributing to it with my original post...ok...so I am slinking away....forget I wrote it. Never mind.

I agree with you Annie. I joined a few months ago and now rarely post or send a message. Nothing is about dealing with the root causes or effects of depression. Its like a high school in here. I don't want to cause any drama. I just want to deal with my issues and, ideally, help people deal with theirs if I can. But I don't even understand most of these threads because they deal with messages that this person sent or that person sent. For me, and just for me, I'm going to remain and check on this community from time to time, but its become too annoying and, frankly, immature. Thanks for posting.

Not all of the thread are about fighting, but a good many are. I've posted several threads that go totally unnoticed. So, if you are truly looking, you can find the fightless threads. I always try to remember I get out what I put into to something. And, I read from my feelings. So, if I am angry, I may interpret the post a little differently than say, if I am joking and kidding around.
