My Mistake

11 Replies

I returned here a few nights ago after almost 3 years. I found solace here once.I was seeking the same kindness and understanding that I have found here in the past when I was on my knees and desperate.

Reading through the current BS that seems to be dominating HU, I see that it was a mistake.

So, maybe tonight is my night.

If so, to all involved, regardless of who's to blame, the important thing is that you got the last word, right?

I’m so sorry Oliver, it’s not usually like this.

I'm hanging on by a thread and for everyone involved, keep going. It's really helping me with my decision. Pat yourselves on the back.

You’re still hanging on that’s what matters. everyone is caught up right now, how can I help?

Maybe remind everyone what the purpose of this site is. Some, like myself, are reaching out in desperation from places of utter despair.I can live, or not, without this chaos.

I understand what you are saying. the desperation is real. you’re doing good by reaching out even amid what’s going on all over the site right now. it’s good you want to remind everyone what the real point is here, I do too. what can you do tonight to keep yourself safe?

Sorry to say, HU was a last resort. I remember writing a post in years past that this community was a place of kindness and understanding. That each of us in turn took turns, being in the darkness, or extending a hand into the darkness to pull each other out.Why ANYONE involved feels this is appropriate here only shows how callous and selfish they are.

Lose faith, lose hope, accept your fate...you might get a "Hang in there. It'll get better."

Create some childish drama and you'll get hundreds.

This isn't directed at you. I'm just tired of it.

I'm just tired.

I was looking for hope. I found drama and hate-filled posts, name calling and people taking sides.

For anyone reading this, instead of fueling the fire, please know that my post a few nights ago was a choice...either call Suicide Prevention or come here. The SP Hotline has really let me down in the past.I'm sorry that I came here. If not for one kind soul who chose to extend their hand, you wouldn't be reading this.

They happen because selfish people perpetuate the drama. It shouldn't.I know how desperate my situation is and I know that I'm not the only one.

Look for yourself at the number of replies to people seeking advice, comfort, solace, or just the tiniest bit of hope. Then look at the drama threads.

What is the priority? I don't recall this in the past.
