Why are you here now??

I used to lurk here for the longest time. I recently joined because of a problem I had been experiencing, but now I am starting to really feel for a great amount of people who have suffered and dealt with their problems and want to offer as much advice as I can.
 
I came to TDS for support when I was in a particularly rough place about 4 years ago. It took a while before I got the nerve to post, but when I did I found that I was immediately accepted, and was given excellent advice and support. I was helped through some very hard times by the posters and staff in here, and stuck around when things got better. Haven't left yet. :)

So basically, I came for the support, but stayed for the cookies.

I really look up to you, Ocean.
Your compassion n understanding for anyone who comes to you for support is immensely uplifting.
You must have an old n wise soul in you.
My momma has always told me that as I was vastly different from other children growing up n its carried on to this day.
Much love n the highest of respect to you <3
 
Before I joined BL, I lurked forums for new posts to see what was going on. I always visited TDS. I felt I was among friends. Some of you guys are really funny, too :)) and I appreciate that. It's amazing how easily everyone relates to each other. Mental health research consistently shows greater efficiency and progress for MH recipients when peers' are working together. Like people say, we 'get' it. That's why it's so helpful to share the benefit of our experience with each other. It's all about making it easier for the next guy, right? That's a good way to live.

I'm still waiting for someone here to manifest some dammned cookies.... my telekinesis skills are a bit off..... and I'm about tired of this IV-Fluids only diet.
 
I've lurked here for six years now, I frequent more when my mental health issues get out of hand, (when I'm happy I lurk the Lounge). I always wished I could give people who need it advice, of course if I had any I probably wouldn't find myself in a deep depression every time shit hits the fan in my own life.
This forum has saved my life a couple of times...No two ways about it...There are so many of you who are inspirational for making it through what you have, Thank you....
 
^This is Powerful and Touching.<3 Glad you are here Powda!:D


LOL @Ix: Yes we are all in it for the cookies dear!;)

This is awesome! :D<3

All I can do is reiterate what most have said here. The spirit of people in here is phenomenal. For every destructive part of life there is an equal and opposite force imo and I think that is what TDS is about and more importantly what all the people on here are about.

I came on here initially looking for support, faith in humanity and a way to reach out and I found it and alot more. :D<3
 
I like this thread..

I am back here (in The Dark Side) bc I have been using Suboxone for the past 11 months (now at 1.75 mg/day, only 3 1-3 day relapses the whole 11 months) and I am badly missing it. Life sucks, I got laid off, I hate school...you know, the usual shit.

(un)fortunately, depending on how you look at it, I've been out of the game for so long I don't even have trusted connects.
