Hmmm

I am starting to wonder if I joined the right site because since day 1 of being on here all I seem to be reading is posts of anger and arguing or other members being insulted or ridiculed for whatever reason unknown to me and that there never seems to be anything done about this at all. I am hoping that this post will not attract the wrong attention just wanted to put my opion out there. I was sure I had joined a site on depression and people were here to support others but am now starting to wonder. I deal with depression on a daily basis as I would assume that most of you do as well and support and friendship would be greatly appreciated if this is not the site for any of this then I would like to know so that I can find another.

Do what I do, dont get involved. Seek support and support when you are strong enough.

Learn to ignore. I dont need a button to ignore posts.

Some people cannot help themselves. Some like to argue. Some are bored and like to stir things up. Just learn not to take things to heart.

Hope you find some friendship here. Hug to you.

Well not just entertainment because some people are very helpful when it comes to answering questions and such but yes it should not be a crutch just another type of support when u are feeling down

grumpybear,

i joined this site about 2 months ago, and used to get upset by some threads, and i have to admit, got a little upset by one in particular tonight about religion; but, i had to stop and realize that that's what that person who starts an argumentative post wants is arguing; just want to tell u that i have met some sincere people here who can respect each other's opinions, even if it's not the same as their own opinion. good luck, sweetie

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
