Do you feel some people on here are just seeking attention?

It’s just... irritating... people are so down but once you reach out and try to talk then you get ignored... is there even a point? I generally care about everyone but people like that make it harder... really getting tired and annoyed. It takes literally twenty or so seconds to send a message. I don’t know, venting.

Yes, some are just seeking attention and not in need of serious help. And that thrives in contexts where people don't second guess the situation

"Oh I am being bullied and will hurt myself.."

@Miram and that in itself bothers me. People out there actually need help and people like that make a joke out of it

@Throger I will take it further than that. Not just them make a joke of it. People who encourage that behavior not caring about how it affects others who emotionally invested in that connection are a part of the problem.

@Miram just a recent post lately caused this in me... really hit the feels. It’s tough to make a joke about a dark time in my life

@Throger I really hope it doesn't happen again and you find some peace.

@Miram thank you. The only part that upset me is reaching out. And trying to explain I know how they feel and ignoring me. Then I just realize it’s for attention and that really pisses me off. I’ve actually done some stuff to myself I shouldn’t have and it’s almost a joke to them.

@Throger There is lot of toxicity going on in this website lately. All sorts of it. So much that aholes like me are taking a break 🙍

Please be kind to you. As far as I see you haven't done anything to deserve being harassed in this thread or anywhere else.

@Miram well one user decides that’s a perfect way of handling things. I’m about to take a break too
