Delightful Posted November 26, 2017 Report Share Posted November 26, 2017 So uh, I feel like a jerk asking this but, uh, I'm having a rough time mental health wise. You might've picked up on that from a couple of my posts. And I like you guys and well I guess I've gotta stop beating around the bush and go fishing (mixed metaphors yay!). What do you like about me? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Budgie Posted November 26, 2017 Report Share Posted November 26, 2017 You're really nice, and you support people in the Bad Day thread. And you are not a jerk for asking for validity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunbird Posted November 26, 2017 Report Share Posted November 26, 2017 @Ookla the Delightful Believe me, you are the last person I'd think of as begging for attention. You are such a strong person. I don't even know everything you've ever had to deal with, but storms, hearing about the crem you've had to endure and the fact that you just keep fighting and pushing through Hell--I hope if I ever have kids, especially daughters, that they have such unbreakable spirits as yours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steeldancer Posted November 26, 2017 Report Share Posted November 26, 2017 You like Wonder Woman. That's a huge point in your favor. You also stand up for your rights, and I really like that. You also seem like a genuine person. Also a good point in your favor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifth of Daybreak Posted November 26, 2017 Report Share Posted November 26, 2017 I've always remembered seeing you ready to step in and help people when they had questions or concerns back in 2014 when I was active. While we haven't interacted much since I've been back again, that's about the most wonderful thing I could ask of a person anyhow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathrangking Posted November 26, 2017 Report Share Posted November 26, 2017 @Ookla the Delightful you are a passionate and caring person. It takes a special kind of person to reach out to others who are going through a rough time and raise their spirits. It is doubly true when you yourself are also going through a rough time.

Mestiv Posted November 26, 2017 Report Share Posted November 26, 2017 You made this topic and doing something like that, admitting your weakness and problems requires a special kind of strength. You'll get through this! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claincy Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 Put simply: if more people were like you the world would be a kinder, friendlier and more welcoming place.

soyperson Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 Del, you're genuinely one of the nicer people I've had the pleasure of interacting with online, and that's saying a lot. You deserve all the good things that can come your way and I'm confident they'll come to you soon enough. Sending all my love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you like about me? I'm fairly new here, but just the fact that you have the confidence to ask this is a HUGE deal! I wish I was that confident...

Mulk Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 speaking as a longtime depression sufferer, don't listen to those voices - the ones telling you how bad it is, how bad you are, always asking what's wrong with you. They lie. They filter everything that happens through the worst possible filter and pour it back on you mixed tenfold. I don't know you well enough to offer much in the way of positive reinforcement. I just want you to know people care. The people here care. You're not weak for asking. I think it's fair to say that we're around if you need us. I'm an expert in self-hatred and loathing, have been for probably 30 years. It's never easy to deal with but some days are a lot harder than others. Hang in there, don't let the bad days win, okay? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattig89ch Posted December 13, 2017 Report Share Posted December 13, 2017 I've suffered from depression, for a long while. Though I didn't know it was depression at the time (it felt like I was just seeing the world for what it is, still feels that way, but less lately). I'm seeing a psychologist about my depression, and he's helping me to overcome that depression. I would recommend getting help. I know such things have a stigma attached to them, but you might be surprised by how effective seeing someone professional can be. Hang in there, and feel free to send me a PM if you want to talk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NamelessThirteenth Posted December 22, 2017 Report Share Posted December 22, 2017 Your rank is Stormfather for God's sake, that means there are so many people out there who like and respect you that you shouldn't even be worried... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
