Is this a site for people with psychological problems?

The way people conduct themselves on here (compared to reddit and similar sites) is very very noticeable. I'm just wondering if there's a specific reason for that.

Reditt and quora are serious sites. People here are more informal and perhaps this site has more focus on emotions and behaviour.

That is true to an extent, but if people on here behaved this way in the real world, they'd definitely have people questioning their mental state. I get that there's a time for more light hearted behaviour, maybe people on here just aren't very good at moderation

@BurgerKingHaveItYourWay: I think people don't behave like this in the real world and sometimes emotions make people play up and it comes forth in different ways and gets expended on a site like this. Which is really the ethos of this site. Support for each other. I think.

@BurgerKingHaveItYourWay: I think what is good about here is I can take my smiley mask off and say what is really going on with me
We are anonymous here. We can let out the real way we are. I have had problems and when I am here I have no fear of family listening to what I really feel like. It allows me to write things out of me and people reply and I find ways to deal with things
