Discussion This website feels like a comfort

[calicocat07]

I've struggled with depression since the age 10-13 and have been dealing with it for years. Im a collage student now and I always felt like I could never talk about how I feel. Nobody wants to hear it but I remember when I found this site while I was trying to look for groups of suicidal people like myself. I feel very connected that others have the same thinking as me. Usually im treated like im crazy but im so happy to see there's others like me out there who can relate without spewing bs about God or how there's people doing worse or its all in my head. I just wanted to get that off my chest. I honestly hope to make friends on here soon if that's not to crazy to think about.

This site is fine but making friends will probably not work. Everyone is depressed & suicidal lol theres not much to relate to other than constantly feeling down. But good luck!

i wouldn't recommend making friends here unless they're in the recovery section, or they could die and you won't be able to talk to them anymore. not to be a debbie downer.

Hey I've made friends in awkward places so I wouldn't doubt it too hard lol. But that's probably just my delusional self talking I guess I just mean people to chat to every once in a while.. if that makes sense.

No worries! You're absolutely right, I guess I didn't take that into too much consideration. I guess just being alone constantly just kind of makes me desperate even for a small connection that may not even last forever. It's happened to me before so I dont even know why I didn't think about that lol.

Agreed. I like how this site encourages pseudo-anonymity, it makes it so much easier to be more genuine and expressive compared to other places

This site has been a good source of information and support. It was here for me many years ago when partial hanging was my method of choice... and it's here for me again for Round 2.

Hey if you are looking for a friend I could use one :) feel free to pm!

i agree with the comforting thing; it's really soothing to know you're surrounded by people who feel the same way as you. i would definitely advise you to be careful when making friends on here though because there IS a chance that they're going to kill themselves. i met one of my closest online friends on here and she passed away almost a month ago, so unless you're prepared for that, i'd recommend making friends in the recovery section. other than that i'm glad you feel comfortable here!! and if you want to talk to someone i'm always open for conversation

I can open my mouth and just say shit, it's great. Can chuck the paranoia levels down cause everyone here knows I've got mental shit going on.

It's also nice seeing the pfp of someone I recognised from a few posts some time ago cause it's like "oh hey, they're still around!"

this thing hits me once in a while too. As I think of it... well no judgement intended but it might be a bit of cruel to spell it out: sasu friendship is like a casino, where you bet your mentality over sth. or smone., instead of those chips. If one loses it's easiest the worst thing that could happen to them emotionally, but if they win, they win A LOT.
I had lost many times. I tried but I couldn't recollect all the names.
But I'm not afraid of losing.
Until I happened to win. I mean, maybe just once.
The thing is, the risk of traumatizing myself cannot stop me from seeking the uniqueness and beauty of people that are, of great possibility, about to pass away and never return to me.
Might be a deviation from topic... Just like how I stayed up at those nights up the mountains, casting a glance at the uniquely pretty comet tails I know I would never get a second chance to see.
How complicated I feel... just the way I "love" everybody.
So... It's so very good to see you all.
I'm so very grateful I still get to talk to u.
p.s. We have Sayaka Miki and Madoka Kaname in this chat if im right. lol
what beautiful coincidence
