Hi there.
I am hardly ever here any more. I have started one of my own websites up. Need to spend most of my time there for a while.
Hang in there. Just talk to as many people as you can. before you know it, you will be making new friends. Try it out, you will win out if you do what I say.
Oh there are more than one mods here on help lol shes not the only one. They just werent on at the time. But i think someone closed his post so one is on now…
I am going back to my own site now. I have stayed so that you know, at least one person likes you and if you give some of the others here a shout. Let them know how you are feeling, they will be just as happy to talk to you.
Accepting is a good start, then you can work on trying other things to gain what you want.
Instead of worrying about things that dont exsist or if they do, dont matter to much in the end.
Dont make your self to busy to talk to people around and about you. Just saying hi and smiling does the world of good, for gaining friends.
Yes I will add you. I am not here as much as I used to be, I do check in every day though.
Your not missing anything, your not giving yourself a chance.
You just have to do the best you can, and let others decide how they want to take you. You know what you are like, as long as you are happy with what you are like. Is all that matters.
Keep on trying. You can always decide to leave if it’s not doing you any good. There is something here for almost everyone. For a few it doesn’t work that way.
Sometimes, it’s the reaching out to help others, to get help for yourself, some people come here and never do any more than, watch and observe what is going on. Whichever way it is, that you feel comfortable with.
So do as much or as little as you want to do, give as much or little as you want to. Come and go as you please. The website and people here dont own you. It all belongs to you.
When you feel down, make a post and invite your friends here, to help you out of it. Send them a shout when you are lonely. Tell them when you are feeling good and happy, shareing it all helps.
Look at me here, spouting of like there’s no tomorrow.
I wonder if you remember this reply you made to a post. http://help.com/post/214417-why-i-lov…
On the right hand side of it, there is a star with the number 3 next to it. I was one of the people who thought it a beautiful reply. It made my day to have it appear on one of my posts.
It and you will always be a part of something nice that happened here on help com.
I have read your last post and hope that this will brighten up your day a little bit.
It only takes the light from one candle to chase darkness away. Thank you for being that light in my life.
Bright blessings and Merry Christmas ~ Richard
Your shout was very sweet. Thank you! Yes I am a teacher and today I am enjoying my first snow day, as a teacher, ever. I use to be a teacher in the desert Southwest, so I love getting the day off for snow. I am doing very well and enjoying my life. I hope your World is amazing. I will probably be checking in once in a while. :)
oh man, that really sucks. Make sure you get plenty of sleep this weekend, it’s the best medicine. It sucks that I can’t bring you soup or something. I really hope you get better.
I know and most people never finish the entire dose… they take a few pills till they feel better and the rest end up down the loo eventually. I hope you will take the entire dose… I want you to feel better :)
lol.. I’m sure there are, but I don’t know much about them and my computer right now is not set up for voice. Although I think it could be. I hope you are feeling better soon. I hate not being able to talk or eat without having discomfort. I used to get sore throats all the time.
oh that’s alright, you have just as little control over your dreams, as I have over how irresistible I am (i think the sleep deprivation is getting to me lol).
You’ll have to email me all about it at some point :P
haha sorry, but I’ve only been in two other dreams that I know of. One of my friends had a dream I was dancing with her shampoo bottle, and Kaylee had a very inappropriate dream we then acted out over the next three nights lol.
i like to think that all my female friends secretly dream about me, being that I’m so irresistible lol.
Yeah, I’ma big fan of as much honesty as I can get away with.
Depression interests me, as I cling to the romantic notion that there is a solution. Doc’s said I was depressed, but saw it as just sad. I fitted the clinical definition he had, but I saw that I was just really sad and had been for a while.
Be intertested in your answers to my post, but they are personal, and you say you have that trust thing. But if you can shed some light, that would be cool.
Yeah, about the food thing. I like to pretend that I’m really deep, but my mood always improves with a good meal and rest.
Want to share more about how a fight page works?
Connection&appreciation… was asking about if you know someone cares about you, someone who understands you, someone who appreciates what you do? Thats what was bumming me for so long, as I lost the two people closest to me, and I stopped feeling human for a while. Good now.
You like you name? Its a nice one to say.
username: your idea will be more interesting than the truth.
Hehehe…. a mini-questionaire i see!
Still some cool and random questions!
I don’t have pets no.
I live with my mother, because I am studying and it is easy financially, and my father passed away six years ago, so its nice for her to have someone around the house, especially when things break and need fixing!
I have seen a frog, but maybe in a reptile house or something, so naturally you can’t chase things in enclosures lol
I have worn lipstick, because doing amateur theatre, some of the roles I’ve played have required a colouring of the lips. Also its good if used correctly to colour cheeks, and darker colour can also sometimes make for nice ’stage’ bruises and such.
I don’t know if I have a favourite hobby.
My interests are many.
At the moment I am taking some time to just do whatever, because I have three months off from university.
I do enjoy reading, and when i get into a really good book, I can’t put it down.
I’ve been watching a lot of boxed sets of dvds (esp tv shows) lately, to try and inspire me to get back into my creative writing which has bee neglected for the last two years :(
Hehe, nosy is ok!
And no I don’t find what you said rude at all!
I guess I am random :)
In real life, I am a student. I’m studying Arts, majoring in drama and minoring in Media.
I do amateur theatre when I have the time, and I am writing some novels and such!
I am single, never been married, no kids.
Young at heart, look ten eyars younger than I am!
Cool, well I guess i’m just nosy. I don’t like going onto social sites where people add you because they like one thing about you and then you both go on not talking and just being there on each others list. (I hope you don’t find that rude). Like I have fans on my list..the only reason I haven’t added them back is because i’ve never spoke to them or anything or don’t know them!
You sound like a very random person and I think thats quite cool. So what do you do IRL ? Like, are you married, kids, single, school, young, old etc?
Glad your open because I’m very straight to the point. I’m told it’s cute but I’m sure it can be hard to get that across to someone over the internet so I don’t want to seem too blunt or rude.
I’m Doug, as you’ve probably already figured out. I got on this site about 3 months ago, because I had something on my mind, and like most of us found the site by typing in the word on google etc…
I got some good advice that helped, and I decided to stick around, because I love helping people!
I’m a cosmopolitan kind of person, so I like making friends from everywhere and meeting amazing people with different ideas and interests!
I friended you, because I like the things that you’d said in some of the posts, and i respect intelligence. Sometimes as well i get drawn to avatars, names, or just the kinds of things people write on their profiles about themselves.
What else would you like to know?
ps. I am a very open person, so you can ask anything you like :)
Well personally I don’t always trust people very well so I don’t usually admit it-or if I do I try to make it so that i’m less vulnerable wherever possible. But I think if you are a bit snappy with someone and then say i’m sorry i’m in a mood, I think it helps people to understand you. It also helps them to realise its not their fault either.
I’ve been depressed for about 6/7 years. Really tried fighting it. I’ve had one after the other of side effects (anxiety, agoraphobia) all sorts of things. Now its like, I’m just depressed for no reason. Theres no target to focus on with things I can fix and make better. I’m just depressed and it feels so empty.
food/sleep/exercise- I purposely obsess over to make sure its all very routine and because I can see how it directly effects me. I’m a lot healthier when I really look after things like that.
creative expression- I use drawing and art and like a “fight” page, where i have phrases and sayings I can use when I’m too negative to think something up. I carry a little book around with me that I can do all these things in.
not sure what you mean specifically by connection&appreciation though.
Yeah my parents chose it :) how did you get your username?
Yeah, admiting to others isn’t always the best plan, but to yourself is great. going “I’m in a bad mood - well ok then” and not feeling presure to come out of it. Sometimes I enjoy being a in a bad mood :-)
Stuck? Sure there mightn’t be anything wrong as such, but that don’t mena you can’t make it better. You buying that idea? How long you been bummed? You got thing like food/sleep/exercise sorted? What about fun and creative expression? What about connection and appreciation?
If I could only take even a tenth of my own advice, I’d be a king.
Cool name, your parents give you it, or you choose it?
Hey, thats alright. I’m just glad that you could realise how you were feeling and accept it - and admit it! Its a hard thing to do although in my experience it usually works out better when you do.
I kinda feel down about nothing to be honest, thats whats getting to me. Theres nothing to fix-so i’m stuck in this depression.
I was writing anon as I realised I was in a bad mood. Was good to just have someone snap me out of it by pointing out like you did. It rare for me to be like this, but getting more comfortable and accepting allside to me is kinda my plan atm, so it’s all good.
Hi, I’m just passing before going to work.
I think people have various reasons for leaving.
I don’t know, to some I think it is like with smoking or other addictions. You like it, but it have its price, like taking too much time from your normal life. So some quit.
But I think it is rude to leave without a goodbye, and even that one should give email to friends. Otherwise they are not friends.
See you later!
