*Hug*
Can't take it away, but can give hugs. You're not a bad person, you're a struggling person. There's a difference. And you get hugs.

*Hug* for you too. I could add more words, but Shattered Cosmere gave such a great response, I don't think I need to add anything to it but hugs. *hug*

 

"I used to be an adventurer like you, until I took an arrow to the knee..." Arrow, stomp kick, roundhouse kick, they all can shatter a kneecap real nice, and leave the person with a full lifespan of constant pain and crippled gait.
Also:
"To the death!"
"No! To the pain."

Always prepare for multiple attackers! I see you favor the Ender strategy. It's a good one.
And YES, convincing them you're insane is SUCH a great tactic. Grinning maniacally as you lick their blood off your fingers works great too.

what, noooo! I wanted to join! I have great ideas about how to kill someone slowly, or even better NOT kill them but leave them forever altered and unable to go about life the same way!
Sad face. I like talking about fighting and murdering and carefully not murdering.

 

Trying to maintain a reputation that's not who you are at the moment will leave you feeling alone, because no one gets to see the real you, no one has the chance to learn and understand. It's blocking people from the opportunity to sit with you. You don't owe your friends happiness; and more importantly, when you force it, you actually deny them something they probably want - the opportunity to live real life with you, to hear how you're actually doing.
Not everyone will sit with you, or understand, I'm not saying broadcast it to the world; but if you don't show anyone, those who care about you won't get the opportunity to show you they care.
We here on this forum completely understand going from feeling better and thanking everyone, to finding yourself back down again. It's ok. 

Rather than "hug", I want to give you a kitten pile. Where we all pile up around and on top of you and give you contact and hugs, and sit quietly together, and let you rest, and maybe doze for a bit, surrounded by all of us. I'm pretty sure a bunch of us on here would join a hug pile. This thing:

Come on everybody - kitten pile on Cookie! It's good for the rest of us too.

I have a cat who is literally eternally touch-starved.

Her name is Patchycat or Patches for short.

Your cats are adorable!! CATS! eeeeee! Patchycat and Schmutz are great names haha

My husband and daughter are allergic and asthmatic, so we can't have cats or they can't breathe (which is kinda important), so I have to get my cat fix with other people's cats. We always had cats growing up. I miss them.

 

Also, random but if anybody wants a laugh, I came across the facebook page of Will Wight, the author that #1TalnFan recommended, and the guy's got a great sense of humor. He doesn't post much, but it's worth checking out.
