Anyone? honestly!I feel like I cant post here or ask for advice because i'll get cut up.. or put down.. or have past posts or events brought up on me.I am a very very depressed person.. and I used to think that coming helped me. Now it only makes it worse.
-
Anyone else feel uncomfortable posting here?
-
It completely depends on what i'm posting.
-
i feel that way...one of the main reasons why i dont come on as often
-
I agree. Hi Ash!!there was a time but it's kind of died down when I had to be careful when mentioning anything about my beliefs at all. It was pretty sickening being attacked all the time for the smallest things and I can't tell you how many times I cried about it and then felt pathetic for crying and getting angry that I even bothered in the first place. That's why I usually just talked to Eddie and Katie and Armondo about it and they always made situations alot better. I think people are just having a bad day...every day lol. I mostly come on just to help out other people with problems or whatever and I get some PM from people who don't want to risk it.

hey abi hun. yeah theres been times where i did not feel right at all posting here. i didnt think there was a point cuz id be bitched at anyway. so i kept my opinions to myself. thats why i used to come on the last few weeks but never post. i still feel the same.. but meh. lol
-
Same, I sit in my room every night and just cry and cry and cry because i feel so depressed .. and i feel like i can't turn to anyone.. I bottle it up inside which has been a major contribution to my anger problems
-
I did at first, but after I got over it, I posted like 50 times in one day lol!
It's just nerves... after you get past fearing what others will say to what you do, you'll be just fine!
-
i know the feeling with the pen helmsy... lolbut yeah.. these last few months ive been hiding a LOT of shit from everyone. not just on here. but people in my life..
-
exactly. Which is why I don't want to post.. because why say something that pains me to express.. and to talk about.. to just later get it thrown at me in the meanest way possible

the irony of the zeitgeist of a2a is that the people who cause the most disturbances are offten the same people that need this forum the most.And there are people on all sides of the recent conflicts that are just as guilty of making it worse, not better.When I was a kid, there was a nasty bully in my neighbourhood that had his sights on me for years. One summer, parks & rec set up a fantasic day-camp for the area. Everyone was there most of the summer, including the bully and me. At one point over the summer my parents had aproached the camp leaders about the situation. They were told that this guy probably needed the environment more than any other kid to try to help him with his problems in socialisation.guess what, the camp leaders, like us here, were not qualified to help anyone... but they did their best as can we
-
you both have good points there... it's hard to know what to do at times... I mean... we all have hurt... and we all have troubles... I guess it's just taking that risk... in everything you do there is always that possibility of having it backfire a few years later... it's not just boards that can come back to get you... it's anything...
-
I'm not exactly in the same boat as in everyone else, but when people try to use something I said against me at a later date, I just pay them no attention.
I said what I felt and I said what I had to say, I got the help I wanted, and that's that. Be done with it.
I understand completely with you all, but for me, I don't know any of anyone here personally, and so if people want to be assholes about it all, I really don't care. :smile: If need be, I get 'shunned', I can just find another online community. (Although, I do sorta like this one)
-
Nope.
I know I'm guilty of saying things that might be uncalled for, inappropriate, offensive, or whatever. But, even though I'm learning to hold my tongue at times, I can't help but be the loud mouth that I am. Sorry people, but I'm not smart.
If anyone says something that I find offensive, I simply ignore it and not take it so personally. Words are only hurtful if you choose to give them power. I also try to keep in mind that these people don't know me, and I don't know them. But since I'm human, I'll fall of the wagon at times and say something rude, sarcastic, or defensive. And if I say something that others feel it's over the line, all I can say is either tolerate it or ignore it. However, I will apologize if I feel I was wrong.
I'm not perfect and neither is anyone else.

the irony of the zeitgeist of a2a is that the people who cause the most disturbances are offten the same people that need this forum the most. I agree with you there. I've never really been a fan of getting rid of people because they are having problems and tend to be arrogant or lash out.The biggest problem here is that people are often too emotional and always react to any comment which goes against what they feel is right. I've always told my kids that when someone is bugging you, if you ignore them, they will eventually stop and go away. The fights here always are due to a "reaction". If the comment is ignored and the thread continues as if the "negative" comment never happened, there would be no problem.
