For all you who have supported me out there and who still do. I am scared and afraid to post on the fourms any more. I wanted to let those that do care to follow me and how I am doing, please PM me. I don't feel safe here now. We will see how long I last on this place.
Thanks for this!

I understand how that feels. I have and kinda feel the same way. I have to say I think things have really changed here at PC. Some people or maybe it's just me have decided to say rude things and not take into account the other person's feelings. With this being said, I totally understand how something like that would affect anyone. It is being done to me right now, but not by anyone at PC as well.
I am so sorry you have to go through this here of all places.
Take care of yourself and remember you are very special. Thanks for all that you have done and continue to do for me.
Talk to you soon...with lots of love and support,
jen

I understand what both of you are referring to

When I feel that way I usually take a break from the forums for a few days. Then I come back because this is a great supportive site and the occasional inappropriate remark from some less sensitive member is not worth giving up all the rest of PC.

I understand not feeling safe any more, but please consider that sometimes people don't mean to offend/hurt and they would probably be surprised if you told them how they made you feel.

I hope that knowing you're not alone makes you feel a little better. I hope you'll be feeling safe again very soon and you'll resume posting

Hugs

I'm new, so I don't know if adding my two cents might help or not. I certainly came to this group with hope of connecting with others who find themselves at crossroads and broken bridges in a fog as to which direction to turn or how they find themselves at this spot again and again. I entered chat last night with hope and a bit of fear. I don't join anything anymore, and I never leave my house... too hurt, too beaten, too misused by people to a degree of numb and frozen(?) At first I connected with one person... briefly realized we had something in common, after that brief minute the next hour was people jumping rooms like ping pong... I began to wonder if those on chat were teens with ADD or ADHD... then one person said, stay, it's helped me before. I said why... no one stays in a room long enough to post an issue and get feedback, but she said it was just a crazy night, it happens sometimes. Thank you K. Someone entered the room and really needed help stating exactly what you have here in your post. Just moments before I was feeling this is senseless worthless and a miserable waste of time.... I stayed for another hour and left (had to go) feeling that at least I was there for someone else, and it that tiny thread of connection mattered, than at least for an hour, I mattered... which often is what I feel that I don't. So post. People are rude, inconsiderate and full of themselves, you can't control that... but you never know when you touch someone out there, like me, who will take a moment and connect, leave you a well wish and let you know you matter.
Thanks for this!

I'm new too. I was on a different forum and the first time I posted I got shot to h**l. I was afraid to post again, other than to encourage other people. Then I found PC and everyone seems so nice and understanding here. I still haven't posted about any of my true feelings yet, I guess I'm still afraid because of the last forum I was on.
Right now I feel like I'm dying inside, but just reading some of the other posts relating to what I'm going through has seemed to help some.
I thank all of you for being here
PS. The people in the other forum started a lot of fighting amongst themselves, it was awful and not helpful to anyone anymore. Well maybe it was to those who enjoyed arguing with each other.

(((((tryingtobe me)))))--I got a beating on another forum before I came here...

I find that there are some here who are less than welcoming--but HERE, at least; they can't curse you out, and ridicule you the way I was there.

I love your posts--you know, "there's always one"--try to take what you need and leave the rest---I just ignore them here--or I actually "Thank" them.

I don't go to one site at all anymore--------I understand--miss you-Theo
Thanks for this!
