For some reason that I don't know and I don't understand,I'm feeling really worried. This goes beyond worry,actually. It came out of nowhere. Just all of a sudden,I'm worried,depressed,and confused. I'm not even sure which of those three feelings I'm feeling,but I can't think anymore.

I'm going through bouts of depression myself and feel scared and confused a lot. Even I'm not too sure why, which does bug me.

I guess it's time to reply to stuff I've been late on, lol.

@Harm, sorry for being late, but I feel happy for you regardless. As long as you keep being awesome and keep making those amazing cello concerts on the Voice Chat you're a great person in my books, and gender is not something that should interfere with any of that. It's always a huge trouble to get used with pronouns though so forgive me in advance ;P

Hey @npromin, those are feelings people happen to feel in any stage of their lives, and it's completely normal if you're just having a ♥♥♥♥ day with a really bad mood for whatever reason. If anything I hope it passes soon. Can't stress how much you need to go on the chat more often and talk, though. Unless you live in a non-welcoming timezone. In that case you can still post on How was your day.

Also, @Veso, it really saddens me that your last posts in this thread were just about depression and dark thoughts, and with the risk of sounding unconcerning, I feel like if it's a problem you are really having trouble dealing with and you need to adress it constantly in this thread, then it's better to get it off your chest with people IRL, be it friends, parents, heck, maybe even a psychologist if you happen to lack communication with any of those. It may seem incredibly hard to let yourself open up at first, but it's a lot better than keeping this rage and anger inside yourself. Acting is the only necessary step.




To lighten up this topic a bit, I've been trying the self-therapy Doram proposed some time ago, and analyzing things from an distant, objective point of view really helps a lot with my self-trusting problems. I can't help but to think the mirror and the post-it methods are kinda cheap, but in the end they also helped (my sister did question what the ♥♥♥♥ was wrong with me when I did the post it therapy though, lmao). Deep down I'm still wanting to keep a certain skepticism about my stuff and I still do value what people think a lot, and there are another things that I need to solve IRL, but that feedback from Doram was superb (again, sorry for being late). You are literally a ♥♥♥♥ (aka the best thing ever).

So I'm going to potentially piss people off, but ♥♥♥♥ it. There are two things I hate. Self diagnosis, and self diagnosing serious issues.

It's one ♥♥♥♥ thing to say you have a cold or that you're anxious. But when you take it to the extremes and say "hey I have this personality disorder" or some otherworldly ♥♥♥♥, and then try to back it up with literally nothing, not even an attempt to accept it might be something minor, then you're a ♥♥♥♥. A sick, self-loathing, narcissistic ♥♥♥♥.

It's akin to me saying "I have AIDS" even if I've never come in contact with it, but just base it off the symptoms and not even bothering to look beyond that. Am I a doctor? No. Are self-diagnosing individuals doctors? Likely not. So do they have the authority to say something of high severity is plaguing them, despite it being their body? ♥♥♥♥ no.

To tell the truth, any time I see people doing this ♥♥♥♥, I put them below me. You're not just self-loathing, you're a narcissist. You're the scum of society. You aren't helping, you're just indulging in your ♥♥♥♥ medical fetish.

I'm not going on chat, mostly because I don't feel very welcome there. I hate to say it, but I'm actually very happy that some of the people that left the site just left.

It's a good time to give the chat another chance, then <3 We can definitely be kinda closeminded or even downright offensive at times, and I'm sorry if you were ever on the wrong side of that.

But really, I dunno what happened, but if people are giving you a hard time or anything on the forums or chat, definitely let someone know. Us staff guys exist for a reason, after all.

I think we also had a thread somewhere of people you could contact and talk to if you needed closure. I was on there, I think, but I probably should update some info.

Raz can seem a little blunt but he definitely doesn't hate you. I'm pretty sure none of us do - that's not how things are around here.
