Did you find sw at the lowest point in your life?

How did you find ep/ sw

What was the state of your life at the time? Did sw improve your life?
LadyJ · F
Yes i found EP when my mom was terminally ill
Fairydust · F
Yeah, we probably all are a bit messed up down here in the basement. 😁
Pretzel · 61-69, M
@Fairydust a little light in the attic too :)
InHeaven · F
Yes. I googled “a lonely life” and this came up. I was extremely lonely and empty and no one to talk to in real life so had to turn to internet
Beautywithin · 36-40, F
No, i was in a pretty good place, i just liked coming on to anwer posts.

It was around the time I was doing my A-levels and initially I pretended to be a guy 🤭

Then I came out as a girl and made another account. After that I didn't use the site until late 2019 for a brief period. By that point I was pregnant irl. Used it on/off since but haven't been that active overall

@SW-User Did you have a big package?
SW-User
@Slade like 12 inches 😂 not really though because I never thought about my package
Slade · 56-60, M
@SW-User then you wouldn't be convincing as a guy😛

I found experience project after I googled "dealing with loneliness". My Dad had just died and I'd lost a friend that I used to talk to a lot. I was looking for company, which I found. It had it's ups and downs but I miss it's vibe. I don't get the same feeling of belonging here that I got at EP.
SW-User
@Ladystarlight25 I'm glad you found a sense of community on EP

A lot of us did 🤗
LunarOrbit · 56-60, M
Yeah. Not long after my sis passed
Imsleepy · 31-35
I found EP looking up something about a dream. I stayed because it seemed cool.
I had just left Christianity when I joined ep so a lot of my time was spent arguing with Christians there. I think I even remember you coming into the atheist group and arguing a few times. 😆
SW-User
Sort of yes
Slade · 56-60, M
I was compelled to find it after a docu on the murder/cannabalism of 2 members so I don't know what to say🤯😛
Slade · 56-60, M
@SW-User he couldn't go through with the cannibalism. She had asked him to kill her. Happened in MN
DeluxedEdition · 26-30, F
@Slade so you saw the cannibal documentary and the first thing you said is let me sign up 😂
Slade · 56-60, M
@DeluxedEdition basically. I googled it and it said anything goes. How could I resist?!
SW-User
I was really really really…drunk and horny at the time 😔

Nah, I found EP out of the blue and wound up here in 2016
SW-User
I found EP at a very low point in my life and once I found it, I've never fully rid of it. I followed through on SW.
I think EP and initially SW helped me remain grounded and having friends helped me a lot at that time. Maybe it's why there is still remnants of good feelings for this place and I keep returning.

I did, therapy wasn't working, I searched for help with grieving, a post from sw came up about a grieving user, I completely identified with this... And the site certainly took my mind off things.. However I was sceptical at first!
Starcrossed · 41-45, F
One of my lowest, yes.
SW-User
I found EP googling for something at a pretty low time. I soon realised my problems were trivial.
SW-User
@DeluxedEdition I'd just been diagnosed with diabetes and I was working ridiculous hours in a job I hated. I guess I was feeling a bit sorry for myself. There were so many people on EP who had much more serious problems though, I realised mine weren't really much to worry about.
DeluxedEdition · 26-30, F
@SW-User yes, I also made that same discovery when I joined. (That’s why I asked) It really changed my perspective on my own life.

Especially when you read stories about people from poor countries and you read their struggles. My struggles didn’t seem to have as much weight
SW-User
@DeluxedEdition We shouldn't ignore them, but I think it helps to put them in some sort of perspective. Helps me anyway.
DarkSideoftheMoon · 31-35, F
A friend recommended ep to me. I went on and was hooked. Wasn't actually in a bad place initially but eventually. Ep shut down and i googled sites simular to ep and found sw
SW-User
I didn’t, I joined to socialise anonymously… to interact with souls not egos

But I was wrong about it in some ways … cos there’s a lot of ego here 🥳
SW-User
ya i was abt to quit high school and kms but then someone on kik told me abt sw so i used to troll ppl here as a way to distract myself from those issues lol
BarbossasHusband · 36-40, M
I just happened to stumble upon EP. A while after it was taken down,I started looking for alternative sites and eventually came across this one.
Chelsiegirl · 46-50, T
A few years ago i was going to kill myself since i hated being a guy so much
DeluxedEdition · 26-30, F
I’m so glad you didn’t 🫂 @Chelsiegirl
Chelsiegirl · 46-50, T
@DeluxedEdition ya i was in very hopeless part of my life
TrunkZ · 56-60, M
Discovered EP as it was ending. I definitely needed a change of scenery. It has been a good thing
theoldschoola · 46-50, M
A friend referred me here. I am at an OK point in life. Nothing incredible happening right now.
Eddiesolds · 61-69, M
No i didnt. I found EP after i left my ex wife.
antonioioio · 70-79, M
Kind of, yes
rrraksamam · 31-35, M
Not this time
i did, i was just about to go through a divorce that i desperately wanted and needed. ep became a safe escape. i was there for a few weeks before it shut down.
SoulAsylum · 31-35, M
One of the,yes....
SW-User
I found EP and life was ok but I found on it support I was lacking in my life

Ironically I found it searching for "anti-abortion but pro-choice"

SW and our culture is more rancorous nowdays
SW-User
SW-User
Yes, it was
empanadas · 31-35, M
Yeah I got kicked out of my parents home and was basically homeless at the time
empanadas · 31-35, M
@nightjourney I got into an argument with my father. He didn't try to claim me. Said I was too black to be his son. So I got into trouble alot. Almost died too. they couldn't handled all the problems I was bringing back home. So they kicked me out. Luckily my aunt in new York took me in
DeluxedEdition · 26-30, F
@empanadas It’s very sad when family betrays your/ turns your back on you

There is no more horrible feeling I can physically imagine than the individuals who are supposed to be your rock make you feel like nothing
