I Have An Opinion

I think people that spent hours and hours on here has a serious problem. Especially the ones pretending to be happy and that keep on posting positive things about how much energy they have and love blah blah blah. Anyone that has a balanced normal life dont spent obsessive time on an anonymous site. Something is not quite 100% right if you do . I reckon anything more than 4 hours a day ( and that is a lot) indicate some sort of problem. Come on if you speak to anonymous people more than that a little bell should ring and tell yourself there are underlying problems. I understand this is an escape for many and especially depressed people and yes okay i get that they may want to spent on here long hours to help them deal with the pain. I respect that. It is the constant happy ones you should be very worried about.

Boo! 👻💀👀

LOL !!!! 🤣

I'm here a lot. I'm retired. I do have a large family. I am happier now than I ever have been. But, my family are all working people. I'm home alone a lot of the time, and I enjoy talking to people about different topics. I don't have to be on an anonymous site. I could go on facebook, gag! 😝 but I don't want to. Believe me or don't. 😏😳

And do worry about me....because I'm happier than a lot of the people here. Sounds strange to me. Oh, yeah, right. I get it. I'm just pretending to be happy. Thanks for setting me straight. I might have lived the rest of my life believing I'm a happy person.

I guess it's time for me to cry. Do you mind if I wait until later though? I have a couple more positive posts I want to put up, before I cry.

@TwinklelilStar: because I'm secretly unhappy. You know. You told me I am so it must be true.

I do talk to my family. A lot. I spend time with them. A lot. Friends, I don't have many left, I'm old; most of them are dead. I'm actually the only one still alive from the old crowd, and relatively healthy, except for a bad back. Now, if you're done calling me a sad liar, I think I'll go for a walk to visit my daughter's dogs. They get lonely while she's at work. I want to get there and back before the freezing rain starts.

Thanks for the conversation. It's been fun and interesting. It's people like you who keep me coming back day after day.

PS. What's your real name?

@Serenitree: i never said ANYONE is secretly unhappy. It could be anything . Lonelyness, depression, mental illness, some other problem, affair. A phopbia. Anything. Could even be a disability . It is just dysfunctional. I am not judging. I spent hours on EP myself - at the time i had my reasons.
And i agree when you retire many things changes too. Peace. You may send me a message one day and tell me i am right (if you REALLY start to know people deeply you may change your mind)

@TwinklelilStar:I had them all. For years I was deeply depressed. Finally got diagnosed with clinical depression, spent four months in a psyche ward, for continuously trying to harm myself. The doctors finally found the right medication that worked for me.

As for knowing people deeply, I don't know who you're talking about. I know the only people who are really important to me, as well as it's possible to know someone who has a two or three generation gap between us. I don't have to understand everything about them to love them. They are my family. That's enough for me.

Yes I come here to vent n share. I am not complete ly happy with aspects of my life...I try to be optimistic

I agree with you on the HAPPY people...A woman I worked with years ago remarried a widower...They travel constantly and she is always posting on FB..Her GLORIOUS life. Same difference as someone here doing the same...What really is the story huh?
