So I'm a little upset/angry. The poem I posted yesterday. Well I posted it on another anxiety support site. (Decided I would try out a few sites to see what I liked better) well the person in charge of the group messaged me and basically said that I shouldn't have posted it there. That it wasn't the place for that. I put trigger warning. I just wanted to express how I felt and maybe some people can relate or realize that everyone struggles. It wasn't trying to hurt anyone's feelings or offend anyone. I was completely caught off guard. Is there something I'm not seeing? I do apologize for it if it did offend anyone. I kinda thought that places like these were the place for things like that. Any opinions?

I didn't see your poem, but I'm sure that was frustrating to have them tell you that. I'd love to read it if you want to share it.

Hi Brian. I read your poem and I thought is was very good. It was your honest thoughts put into poetry. I do not see it as a trigger but instead it helped me to realize I am not alone in this battle. Thank you for sharing!

Hi. I read your poem and I think it was great. Ididnt get triggered. I disagree with the group leader of that other group. Sounds like this community is a better community...lol Boooo👎 to the other group! 🤣🤣

How are you?

Well I did not see the poem but maybe it was a good thing that you sent it. Sometimes it is better to try all things in order to find a better one. I myself have been to other depression site, I will tell you one thing and that is, I love this site. A person can be themselves. If you feel depressed, you can get support. If you are happy, you can also share that with people. If you want to play games, you can play them as well. Whatever you want to do, here you can do just that. I hope you are no longer in dilemma where you have to choose which is better because now you know.

I wonder - maybe it was triggering to her? Maybe she had a bad day? Once someone told me, "Don't mind-read, you're not a fortune teller". I said, "thanks for that reminder, I'll give my neighbor back her money for the reading." 😀😇
