Just because someone reads a post doesn’t mean they will have answer for it. Something like suicide is pretty heavy, many people might have considered answering a question like that to be out of their league. Try not to take it personally.
Some times you don’t think like you’re able to give the best response. I’ll view lots of things and probably right on maybe half of them.
If I see something that I can’t relate to I don’t respond, you could end up making it worse.
Also, people who have been here a long while can tell when it is a troll, we tend to ignore them too.
ok. i am not saying EVERY post.
but really.
what about the people who just want opinions?
I respond if I have something helpful. If it is like a yes or no question, I don’t generally respond.
ok. well this wasnt to every person on here.
just a general group.
because some people i know have posted things on here, and gotten no help.
what is that?!
you could at least tell the people that you are there to listen or something.

and most of the time, the people probably already know that there are people on here.
but i have noticed what they are talking about…

Why do you use the word “you”? Wouldn’t “I” be more appropriate and actually within your rights to control?
i wasnt telling you to tell them that, i was saying that YOU are capable of that.

YAY! :)
But honestly though, I’ll still pass up a post if I don’t think I have anything constructive to say. Yah, I feel guilty doing so… but when the only thing I can honestly think to reply is “No, I don’t like your poem one bit… please cease and desist immediately” or “Sucks that you’re heartbroken… but did you really actually think it a good idea to let him sleep with your BFF?… Because if so… you should probably just move back in with your parents for the next decade… I’ll write them a note… It’ll just say “FAILURE”… they’ll get the point.” then, I think they may resent my honest input/advice. Call me a softie… but destroying Anon’s ain’t really my bag.

i try and reply to most of the posts i read. :) but it’s the same with those guys ^^ if i don’t feel as though i have good advice or something positive to say, i won’t comment ..or if i feel the topic is out of my league. usually if it’s just asking for someone’s opinion though, i will gladly give my thoughts ..unless it’s just a dumb question. :/

I care — posts like this seem dangerous to me but not enough that it’s worth arguing about.
I think people can use their own judgement when to try to help or not.
it’s true. but like your post said. helping helps everybody. helper and helped alike. It’s all an exercise in self-soothing. So really, I believe everyone is selfish, innately. But when ppl author posts. There should be a sense of ownership, for whoever reads them, especially if they’re intimate enough to be b suicidal. No matter if the originator is sincere or not. A cry for help is a cry for help, no matter how “big or small”. It won’t hurt to say something like
..”hi, it’ll be ok. The day will get better.” or “youre an idiot.”
It’ll be words taking up space..but at least somethings there.
Im here to listen , but you girls ……dont get me started
Sometimes I write stuff, then worry it won’t help so I delete it. I’m a low on self confidence. Sometimes I go in and just read other peoples reviews because I feel the same, or has the same problem as a post. Maybe other people do the same too.

A troll is someone who posts something that isn’t true, to waste other people’s time. Usually it’s pretty offensive.
good point, anonymous. I never thought about that. So the morale of the story is? I will worry about myself and those closest to me. and not pass judgement on others on trivial matters. ^.^
