will do...DS needs more good friends like you...

thanks, please keep this bumped

BUMP!

Sure.

this kind of shit drives me crazy. lots of us have had a bad week. nobody gives 2shits about me or the next person. Everyone needs hugs, not just fightforyourlife. I despersately need support. I need to no i'm thought of to. i 'm not junping on the bandwagon

karissa, you have no idea what even happened to me. I pray that you get what you need, but i am sorry that i cant give it to you. Im sorry, but I had to report you for my own wellbeing...

Cant we all just get along and support each other! Boy, some people are so immature! Grow up!

I'm new to the site and sorry but what is "bump"..what does that mean?
I am sorry fightforyourlife has had a tough time and will keep her in my prayers. I'm also sorry that karissa isn't getting the support she needs and feels others tend to receive more attention b/c obviously she is hurting too..I, for that matter, have had a hell of a week and life is very scary right now and could use some good support. My wish is that anyone who puts themselves out there like you do on this site, will find kind people who will listen to them and validate the fact that they are in need. My hope is that this site isn't clicky.
With regard to Karissa, we don't know what kind of day she was having when she replied the way she did...I'm not sure that she needed to be reported but instead maybe asked what was wrong and how can we help? Her anger was obviously coming from somewhere and we don't always act the most appropriate when feeling angry. Anyway, with all of that being said, I hope both fightforyourlife and karissa get whatever it is that they need today to deal with whatever it is that is going on and that anyone who is reaching out on this site gets the support they are searching for. I hope I do for I desperately need it!
thanks..

I cant stand all of this. THIS IS CRAP! Maybe I should leave... In case anybody case about what happend or just wants to keep bashing me, atleast her are the facts. My grandpa died last week and my grandma couldnt take it so she killed herself. BY ALL MEANS, KEEP ON BASHING! I CAN TAKE IT! HERES A ROTTEN BOX OF TOMATOS JUST FOR YOU!

wow, is that necessary? I understand you are experiencing a really sad time right now but you are not a victim. AND you are certainly not the only one going through something big. and by bashing you are referring to the fact that I didn't think you needed to report karissa, I am sorry but I don't think just b/c we don't hear what we want, that we should reprimand or punish anyone. I'm not saying she needed to say what she said but obviously she is in need too and had an emotional moment. On a site like this it can't be all about you or me but it's about many people with many issues. And after all that, I still didn't find out what "bumped" refers to! lol..anyway, fightforyourlife, I pray that you and your family can get through this tough time and I'm sure you may not have liked what I had to say but throwing a box of tomatoes at people seemed a bit ridiculous to me and I certainly don't see how it helped anything. I hope you can understand where I'm coming from and know that I mean no harm. Take care of yourself...

Posts are listed in order of the last reply. "Bump" is simply what people want to do when they want to "bump" it to the top of the discussion list. It is usually reserved for when people are in dire straits (really need support/have important questions) or posts are getting lost among the various board games.

Oh, and I do hope that EVERYONE gets what they need.

Some of us are able to ask for what we need, or are lucky enough to have others who do it for us. Some of us don't or can't - and sometimes there is repressed anger about that.

This isn't what this post is about though. Please let's not forget that this THREAD was about getting a particular person support. I hope that doesn't get lost in an argument.

Thank you for explaining what bump means. I want to say that I understand what the post was about and I'd like to think that the person in need did receive support but in the midst of that it became clear that someone else was hurting and while it wasn't communicated in the best way, it just didn't seem necessary that they needed to be reprimanded on top of being clearly frusterated. I'd like to think that while we are helping ourselves and receiving support from others we can pay it forward by recognizing when others need help. You can't always predict when those opportunities will present themselves and unfortunately the timing isn't always great..anyway, I hope the "argument" can cease and to agree with you, that EVERYONE gets what they need.

the tomatoes were for other to throw at me hence "bashing" IM GONE...
