(23,168 posts)There's hundreds of people here who come here for support when they really can't get it in real life for one reason or another.
We don't have to type our issues in here...but we do. And the support is tremendous.
Usually.
And then one or two people get a fucking bug up their ass and come in and make you feel worse.
And it's wrong.
It's a pet peeve of mine.
And when it's consistent, I'll speak up about it. I feel like a prick doing so, but Jesus Christ, that is not what this website should be about.
Some people don't realize how much that can ruin your day. You're on the head of a pin as it is, and you get up the courage to post about it, and then someone insults you instead of just reading the thread and moving on.
I'll tell you one thing, and this may ruffle some feathers here with some people...if I were in a mental state where I found myself attacking DUers every few days, I'd stay the hell off of the site because there is not a soul in here who needs that shit.
And unless my mind were totally gone, I think I would recognize when i was being a complete prick to people consistently. That's my opinion, and i know that not everyone is going to like it.
I think people should understand that EVERYONE IN HERE is having some kind of problem, and we need to be kind. Or at least, be kind somewhat consistently.
Thank you, Kali.
