Ophelia, your struggles are real too. We're all friends, and when you have a problem it's still something to get help with, or just sympathy.

Plus - haven't you considered that so-called "mundane" issues might be inspiring to someone? Like, there are days I feel so crazy, it's actually kind of nice to see a LGBT with a non-crazy problem.

 

A "problem" can have a varying degree of "importance" depending on the perspective from which one looks at it. If you need help with something, the problems of others should not play a role in your decision to post here or not, because each person is unique and has "problems" that are unique to them.

 

No. I mean, it's wild - i'm making friends, changing my life, big things. But that doesn't mean that *you* don't hurt, or get frustrated, or just need to talk.

My Dad was a big one for saying that no one could understand how much physical pain he felt. He did have heart problems, vascular disease, heart attacks. But he got the idea that *his* pain was worse than anyone else's that he was a martyr. I really hate that.

I'm getting better with the help of my new friends, and they are getting better with *my* help. It feels wonderful. xD Thinking about Somepony else, helping them thru their stuff, can take your mind off your stuff, and give you a new perspective on your stuff. I guess - it's like this, I started getting better because I found someone special to help. I'm rambling, but I hope you'll stay, help others, and help yourself. (*hug*)

 

Don't leave! :C Sometimes I feel that way too. Looking back on it, I think part of the reason I cut was because I wanted my problems to be 'validated'. That's just silly in my opinion. Stick around, you're a great help everywhere.

 

Ophelia, you are not making anything worse! I like making friends, I *like* caring about people. I want to help, I never leave anyone behind.

Come on, you are hurting. I know you are. Your hurt is real, too. I can help, we all can help. We *want* to help. (*hug*)

 

I understand, but I hope you'll listen - you are *not* making things worse. Ophelia, I can tell that you are hurting. That isn't small. Not to me. I'd like to help you, and I'm good at helping.

 

No one's problems are insignificant, and just because they might seem less bad than someone else's doesn't make them irrelevant. Everyone has the right to feel down about things, and to be helped out during these times. Including you. (*hug*)

 

no, that is AWE-sum! (hear that in Dashie's voice)

I know, right? (*hug*) They do, tho. To keep safe, you can use 1st initals and stuff when referring to people from Meatspace. That helps being anonymous.
