Thoughts Post your little thoughts.

I know I am not the only one. I just want someone to give me advice, and direction. I want someone to care.

That's true. Sadly, some don't. And statistics have shown that most people that have mental health issues don't feel accepted enough to share it with others. So that furthers the misperceptions we have of how many people struggle with this. I see it as many other things in life: if someone is (knowingly) unaffected by an issue, they don't see it as a problem. But I think if stigmas were gone and everyone was free to be transparent, we would see how prevalent this really is.
I hope you find the help that you need!

@SweetAlexandra, we're all a little broken so I hope you don't feel like you're the only one.

I have had a really good therapist for years until she left. I am struggling to find a good one. Yes I am broken.
 
I had a bipolar friend on here until she ghosted me. I love Winnie the Pooh. I dont care what issues you have. In my book Tigger you are pretty cool, smart, and amazing
 
It might be a long little thought ....

In the 5 years I've been on FCN I unexpectedly lost 3 friends who lived in other parts of the world. Two due to none covid related illness and one due to Covid. The loss was bad which was worse, was the wait for them to either reappear or that somehow miraculously news about them reaches you so you can get closure about why they just simply no longer respond one day. I was happy to hear that all three of them had died from other contacts.

It made me realize that one can develop beautiful friendships over a distance. However, it also made me realize that I do not want to be involved on line on such a personal level anymore because, it's already bad when you lose friends or family in your real life but, it's worse for me to lose people online and not knowing what have happen to them.

That's also why I'm no longer talking to people away from here or starting new conversations with people away from FCN other than the ones I'd already talked to before the loss of the three friends.

After recent events, I also decided not to send an inbox first so there can be no expectations for more than just being friendly and or something more. Because it is a very human behavior to have expectations that sometimes lead to disappointment I decided to stop it so there is no harm or hurt even though it is not my fault that people have more hope or expectation than what I am willing to give.

I would rather say an honest and decent no than give someone false hope not only for sexual or romantic expectations but also deeper friendship expectations. That way, people know where they stand with me. The couple I do talk to on a more personal level understand me well enough to know there should be no expectations.

I enjoy the banter and chatting in main where everyone is and find that it works much better for me online. I empathize with many but for my own mental health I reserve the right to decide how deeply I get involved or not.

I don't understand the appeal of calling lovers "daddy". It sounds weird, but I had a great friendship with my dad, so it just seems creepy to me.

I always thought that too but this year I branched out and tried it... it doesn't work for everyone. The relationship has to be right. And it's not that they are like a father. Daddy means dominance, protective, caring, and safe. I'm not into the D/s so this is different, atleast for me. I read some really great thought provoking articles about this as well.
