A lot of people talk about depression and suicide on here.

A lot.
Sometimes it seems like people compete for the saddest most depressing story.
That’s depressing in itself.

Anyway, here’s what I want to propose.
I’m tired of being a bottled up, pathetic, emotional shadow.
I want to be myself again.
I kinda realise that noones advice can help out all that much.
But anyone who wants someone to mutually share their story with, it’d help me, and I hope I can help you too: tim.g.greene(at)gmail.com for msn/googletalk or just to email.

That’s not true. Advice can help alot if the right words are said. It’s true that there isn’t a cure for it by simply using a computer, but words of encouragement can go along way if it’s allowed.

Cant be more obvious than that can you?

If you had any kind of decency in you, you would understand that not every can talk about when something is pressing them down.

yeah people do talk about that a lot on here. some people are making it up, but some people mean it. people’s advice can help as much as you let it. but yeah, i get what youre saying about being yourself again. i would offer my story but its a saddish one and it probably wouldnt do you any good

Not the story itself, but helping someone may make me feel valid, and I’d feel like I’d be able to tell mine. My one isn’t very sad, it’s just pointless and coincidental.

Also, wow ‘beautifulfutilelife’ I don’t think you could overshoot the meaning of my post any more. Like not even a little more, you’re clearly an idiot.

people probably talk alot about depression because when you get desperate, something you might do is type “help” into the google search bar when you run out of ideas… which would take you here.

Try typing depression into google.
First search result is GSK’s website, telling you you need to take their medication.
Isn’t it a wonderful world.

Hmm, well. You get “Help” for depression, so naturally people type in help.

dunbara, I understand everything you’ve said except for the words and the meaning. That bit stumped me just…just slightly…? To either post really…

Lol! I’m Sorry!! >_

Just forget about it, it’s getting late, and im actually smiling right now, so i may be alittle weird.

1st post was because i thought more people like beautifulfutile would reply

2nd post was in agreement with Sad Poet.

3rd post… was out of the blue. :P

That should help with my meanings.

But yeah, Nevermind me. *doodoo doodadoo* ^_^

(this post made NO sense either, and i realize this. :P.)

this is where people come
when they can’t talk to real people anymore.
virtual reality makes it easier to communicate
vs. real life,
which can be difficult and scary
and make certain relationships awkward.
this leaves room for mystery
because you never know who you’re talking to.

i came here when i had a problem that i couldn’t go to anyone i knew about
because i didn’t want to deal with the shame of the mistake i made
but i ended up getting caught anyways
so there’s never any way around it
reality will always catch up to you in the end.

I supposed i did….

I’ve again retained my mental awareness, and control of my facial expressions, and it has struck me that my eyes hurt. So i plan on “Hitting-The-Hay” real soon.

I’m on a sense-ful roll…

I’m up ludicrously late tbh, I am too embarrased to even say how late it is here. Or early. I don’t know which.

But yeah, do feel free to poke in that address if you feel like chatting some time.
That’s why I started this thread, though it was bound to derail :]

well said.

You’re calling me a bottled up, pathetic, emotional shadow?
Oh, I crack my own ribs I do.

Yeah, I like my words.
But being good with words while an admirable skill, doesn’t mean buckets if you can’t convey any kind of coherent meaning along with it.

That, I suck at.
Reams of rather pretty and pointless prose about pretentious rubbish.

Oui…

“a little less than a happy high, a little less than a suicide”

Tim, i offer to you the band “Elliott Smith”. He’s superb, and if you check him out, that you check out the album XO.
He’s a great lyricist. I hope you like him.

With that, i bid you farewell. I enjoyed this post ridiculously (still not sure why), and may we speak in the same post again, some time.
Bonjourne!

The delirium of being partially concious.
I should too rest my weary limbs.

i’m depressed, bulemic, and annorexic. i have no one to turn to, no one to talk to, no one who will understand, and worst of all i don’t trust anyone i know enough to tell them this. i was not seriosuly annorexic, jus dropped 30 pounds from starving myself, someone helped me before it got out of hand completly. i will always think im fat, always compare myself to others. i gained 8 pounds and am average weight, when i found out i gained weight i freaked out. i’ve been starving myself weeks on end, then binging and gaining it all back, then i discovered how to make myself throw up. i will never be staisfied on how i look, and due to weight gain, i am very depressed. i put on a act for family and friends so they think nothing is going on. i wish this never happened to me, because i will never be the same, this is ruining my life, yet i’m not stopping it. the worst part is im 13.
