Wondering

[Adke]

I’m new. I was encouraged to try lol. So here I am. I’m not sure how I feel about all this. I sit here questioning does this work or is it a waste of my time? I think if I really get honest these people are going to think I’m seriously crazy hahah! But I have to try something. All my other outlets are not healthy and very self destructive lol. So here I am. Let’s see what happens.

I like your attitude I'm new here as well and you will soon find that if your having a moment and you type it on here people come to you very quickly and stay there until your good so consider me as one of your many many community members!

Thank you, I was told I should be totally honest when I decided to try it out. Lol

[Hidden in reply to Adke]

lol yeah the more honest the better I'm learning that as well i have never joined anything that relate to these types of things or joined really anything for that matter but Im really starting to enjoy it . At one point i was like this isn't me then i realized yeah i needed this hah how these things tend to unfold!

[Adke in reply to Hidden]

Hahah hopefully that will be me. Right now I’m just not sure how it will help but we shall see. I’m not quite sure how to even start Hahahah!!

Hi Adke A waste of time? Never, when we are taking a step forward

and seeing what works for us. (sort of testing the waters) This is a safe place

to come to in expressing your deepest fears and issues. It is not only confidential

but the group is understanding and supportive because they too suffer the same

as you. Nothing can ever be told to us that someone hasn't experienced.

I am very happy to Welcome you. We care. xx

Thank you!! I don’t mean to be so pessimistic. Just nothing seems to help but to shut myself down. So it kind of makes every other avenue seem grey. I am going to stick with it I hope. I honestly hope it gives me the same fulfillment as you all!! Seriously thank you!!

[jocie609 in reply to Adke]

I am trying not to be pessimistic either yet sometimes it’s hard not to be so you are in good company!! Keep hope alive!!

I have only been a part of this online community for a couple of weeks and I have found it very helpful. Not only are we not alone, but these people relate on a completely different level than anyone else! The way people band together to reach out and help people is just amazing and refreshing. I have not felt or seen any sense of judgement from anyone here. Sometimes I too have self sabotaging behavior too... And we're all crazy! Anyone who doesn't have a little crazy in them is the weirdo!

[jocie609 in reply to BecR1025]

Well spoken!!

[sweetiepye in reply to BecR1025]

I love crazy. Benign crazy. Pam

[BecR1025 in reply to sweetiepye]

I feel it gives us character

[jocie609]

I am new here as well and no one is gonna thinking you are crazy! We are all here to support one another and to listen as we share. You can say whatever is on your mind or heart!! This is a welcoming and affirming place!

[sweetiepye]

Your experience on here will depend on you to a large extent. You soon get an idea of what people are by their posts and responses. It works best when you answer or respond to the members who have responded to you. That helps to get a dialogue started. People are incredibly supportive and non-judgmental. I have grown through this site and found new ways of viewing myself and others. It is my safe place and is always available so you are never alone. Welcome, let us help. Pam

[Hidden in reply to sweetiepye]

Well said! It's very true. You really get to see how people are through their posts, it's awesome.

[sweetiepye in reply to Hidden]

Awesome indeed.

Everyone's has a different experience here. This is a Serious Website, Not Funny. Some People are desperate talking about suicide, etc. Looking for advice or just to vent. Family and friends don't want to deal with people with anxiety and depression cause they don't understand? So if you're going to give advice only do it if you're Sincere?

[Ashira]

I also just joined and have the same feelings, but I figured I’d give it a try and see if it helps.

[Hidden]

Thinking of you and sending a welcome. Say as much or as little as you want. You'll be unconditionally accepted here. I'm new and posted on a day when I was very depressed and felt really accepted.
