If you are going to be talking about mental health...I would suggest doing in pm...with folks you can trust...cause on here...you might not get the support you are looking for and trolls are always looking for easy targets...be aware of what you sharewink

Tiger_Moth: Surely this is the last place someone with anxieties would want to be.

.
I once had someone stay up nearly all night chatting to me on here because I’d had a bad day and he wanted to make sure I was ok so not always a bad place to be when feeling anxious.teddybear


Other days I log on see a thread title that tiggers me so I log off before I turn into a ranter laugh

rohaan: Since at least the early 2000’s, anxiety is on the rise. Slow down, world...I’m completely confident in saying this, cat, these problems are caused by people going too fast. Period. Haste makes waste. Be patient-or be one. If you’re in a hurry, you’re doing it wrong. Measure twice, cut once. Triple- check that medication BEFORE you dispense it. Read the whole document before you date and sign it. Look both ways. It’s all back to slowing down. For real.
Totally agree with this.
Covid in all its hardships has taught us the very lesson, slow down...spend time with people who matter...care for those who need it most and that you love...dont say no to the pleasurable things in life for fear of work being slack..work is always there...
Take the walk I nature, have a laugh with a loves one...do a kind gesture for a strange...( all covid friendly)..those are what matters....those things is what keeps you happy when all you have left are your memories...

How lovely.
I have one female friend here who is great to chat to.
For that along I'm grateful to have found someone as a friend.
It's not all negative.

Not often that I agree with you but this time you hit the nail not only on the head but very deep. All people want to talk about is Coronavirus something that has affected the whole world. They forget that people have personal distresses and might want a kind word of compassion from others. Two people on this thread responded to my post. I regret that I wrote it and will NEVER open up my feelings again on CS.

The choice is yours...but my advice would be...to confide in someone who knows you and you know you can trust...cause we all mostly strangers on here and we never know all sides of a story

Here is a big Irish hughug from me to you Secretagent teddybear
My granny always said “Never have regrets because of how you feel! Because it was right at that time, when you recall it and claim to regret it, it self doubting you.”
I never understood it in my youth but then as I aged I began to understand it clearly.

I have people in the real world to talk to about this. Once before I posted a little bit about it on here and didn't expect a response because of the type of thread it is. However, I thought this thread was about showing compassion to others. I am at fault for having the expectation.

I'm over it.

Thank you to the people who did show kindness hug

secretagent09: I am suffering from immense fear that my son in law will die from the cancer that he is now being treated for. He is getting chemo treatments but if the chemo doesn't shrink the cancer enough away from the bone they will not be to perform the second surgery. If they can do the surgery they will cut away any cancer cells that are left but he might lose an eye, part of his pallet and his front teeth. My daughter, his family and I live in fear that we will lose the man in our family who we all love very much.
Offering prayers and healing blessings for your son in law and to you and his and your family. My father died of leukemia and his mother (my grandmother) died from colon cancer. Not many people on CS know this but I am a advocate for the developmentally disabled and for the mentally ill like my father and his father (my grandfather) before me. We worked in a NYS institution for the developmentally disabled that had over 5000 residents. It is closed down now in favor of group homes. hug

So you're saying that before you will show compassion to someone you need to know their history.
There are 14 people on this thread who know me and have been around as long as I have.

I just looked back at the OPs opening post and I will be honest in saying that I didn't realize the thread was meant to be ONLY about Covid and how it is affecting people mentally. The last sentence says "get it off your chest". My family crisis is weighing heavily on my chest. I was just crying for compassion. I got it from a few people and I appreciate that. You are right Lee. A social website is not the place to think that people care about you.

I can understand that Butterfly and yes there are some decent folk about apart from ranters.grin

My response was to the O.P who stated he was suffering from anxiety so I questioned his wanting to be on here where responses could cause more pressure, though I doubt it somehow.wink

Non covid related: in the summer of 2011 I experienced some anxiety for the first time in my life. My sister had had it years earlier and I thouht It'd never happen to me.
A girl at here from Australia talked with me on the phone while I walked in the forest. Her voice was like balsam to my soul. Her name was Yasmine. I will never forget her. Yeap, I got a little jealous when she dated another guy from cs instead of me lol ..he was faaast (all respects to him).
This woman will always have a dear place in my heart.
