Where do you find more emotional support? Real life or on internet

@Somexyz Very true. Being able to have that moment can be a bit tricky. The aligning of several stars may need to be had just for it to be a thing. I learned it’s not necessarily someone listening to you…it’s just allowing yourself the opportunity to release what’s clinging onto you desperately, pulling you down as it finds a home within you. I didn’t always have someone to listen but found release through simply putting my thoughts and feelings to paper. Was also able to deconstruct the emotions that way, lessening their power over me greatly as I was forced to learn to emotionally support myself first and foremost. But having someone to listen, even someone to hug…they can both be hard to come by, especially when you don’t want to trouble people with the difficulties you’re having.

@PerfectionOfTheHeart Very well said.....I have done the same for myself . Writing my feelings out was and is a huge relief for me. I am beginning to do it again because it does help. I haven't always had someone there to hug me either. It's always been difficult for me to ask for help at times. I definitely don't want to be a burden.

@PerfectionOfTheHeart Yes writing has helped me a lot. It is very helpful.

@BlueVeins seeing a mention from you makes me smile every time

@itsok Love u too 🤗

@4meAndyou Internet has its own advantages. You can be anonymous. You can share things , which you don't want to share with real people around you. You can freely express your thoughts without impacting your real life.


Regarding your male friend. [i]"find zero support from my annoying male friend...who needs support more than I ever will."[/i]
Lol. 😅. Good to know that you support him. He is luck to have you as friend.

@Somexyz Yes, I like this site, and I like my internet friends...quite a bit. Some of them are absolutely awesome. You can meet good people from a thousand miles away and more, who impress you mightily with their intelligence, their strength, and their loyalty.

Re: my RL male friend...although he is annoying as hell, I will never abandon him as others have done. I feel as though my support of him is important somehow.

@originnone Listening, advising, talking, being there.

@Somexyz I've never seen those things.

@CestManan In the end, we have to deal on our own. But some support just facilitate the process. Sometimes, not all the time.

@Somexyz for me it's pretty much never.

@CestManan May be write can help. I don't share much of my problem with offline friends. But when I write on anonymous site like this , it really helps me.

@Stephanidunord Yes, this is one of the reason I come here.
