There are some forums I go to that just add to my anger then make me very depressed and I ruminate like mad over it. I like the internet because it's interactive which makes it more enjoyable than TV and it keeps my reading and writing sharp. I belong to some civilized and not so civilized forums. I also post comments on news articles which I ruminate over. I feel like if I get a little acceptance from my comments then I'll feel better about myself or something. In reality, the good feeling never seems to last long but I always go back to it and feel addicted in a sense. Maybe cutting the internet out altogether would help but I would just spend more time doing nothing and end up in bed. Pathetic, huh? My rumination gets so bad that everything negative from the past and present starts running thru my head. I have trouble starting and finishing things (and other problems) which is why I am not working. What are your feelings about posting online, how does it make you feel, what are your expectations when you post, etc.?
