i think maybe the negative aspects receive more attention because people are drawn to subjects that interest them and/or they can relate to. plus, some people coming here come for the support and not general chit chat. note that i said some, not all. i cant speak for everyone but i know that i mostly come here for the support, and sometimes if im feeling better, ill engage in chit chat or post in a funnier/ligher mood type thread. other than that, i'm usually drawn to posts that relate what im feeling at the moment. or posts that interest me and i feel like i could post an informative post in.
