Hi guys. Maybe there are a couple of folks here who remember me, it's awkward to see that many "banned faces" around like LoneKiller for example who used to make ten posts every second a while ago...
I always thought it was weird to see so many people go in a rather uncivilized manner. Even my "see you later" wasn't very polite.
The main thing I wanna say is... this forum is both a blessing and a curse, in some cases, like mine for example. The forum and the internet. This virtual world you are seeing right now. You seek refuge here from all the pain and for all that you don't understand about yourselfand others. Outside becomes a frightening, hard-to-deal place.
Then, the other main thing I wanna say is, how you unplug yourself from this masturbatory ritual... Easy, the hardest path. Right now in this world people are mainly concerned with themselves, or haven't they always been? Who knows, in the end it doesn't matter that much for us now. When there is no one to turn to, the only option is an artificial intermediate reality called psychotherapy. It took me 8 years to come to this point. When I can actually feel again, when I'm not petrified by reality. I made a choice a while ago, a choice to leave this forum, then leave other internet websites slowly. It was the right choice for me at that time.
There is a better world, a better way to look at things and people are just people with your exact same emotions... You might bee out of tune... But really we're just the same. You can hide. It's even fun sometimes, but when you come out, look behind and see an "X" amount of years have gone by without any significant achievements, trust me, that doesn't feel good. I have a whole chunk bitten off my life, between my bullied adolescence and a cruel coming of age. There is a time to say "enough is enough".
I'm not gonna debate this... I'm just suggesting if you see you're going nowhere, get help - the more the better. I got help from homeopathy too. At least I'm fortunate enough to have parents who support me, I don't see a polite way of saying this... If you have the cash, find a good psychotherapist, do the therapy and deal with your honeysuckle (yes it has to be GOOD and HONEST, as every doctor, is not all the same). Take meds if you must, they can help if they're the right ones. It's not pretty. I go 3 times a week, still. I wanted to quit really bad this weekend, but I know I'm still not ready to leave or to even be participating in forums. They can be a little too magnetic, users get really attached to something that has become a parasite in their minds and so they bite it off in rude manners. That's why b& b& b&... It's part of the fun... Also a dark side to it.
So that's it. Tl;Dr;Try to not overstay just because you can
