♥ the ranting thread. (V2) ♥

I tried that. Now I cut.

This guy might need evaluation by a professional. It makes no sense to behave that way to someone he just met. Maybe he is just rich and spoiled, but maybe there is a condition affecting him that needs to be dealt with. There could be people at his (your?) school who can help.

It sucks doesn’t it. I remember going to my intake and that morning felt like hell. I wondered if every time I went to the therapist, it’d be like I died 10 times over…

i’m so sorry, i was joking and mocking people who think you can cure depression easily like by drinking water.

please never cut. that’s never the way to go when you’re in a bad situation. situations are never permanent. you don’t want to die, you just want to stop the hurting. and you can do that, and find yourself a better place in life. i believe in u. i love u. talk to me whenever. i’m always here if you’re lonely or need a shoulder to cry on. always.

take all the time you need!

you probably won’t read this, but…
thank you so much for being the lovely mom of the thread!! i appreciate all the advice you generously gave out and the people you made feel better when i wasn’t there to do so
i made this thread on the old forums in 2015 just because i was mad my sucky episode stories weren’t getting reads, but the thread has definitely became more important and meaningful because of everyone who comes here to rant and the presence of helpful people like you
i think you’ve inspired a lotta people here to give advice and support our fellow forum friends too, and you’ve made an impact here in the best way.

i try to make this a positive environment it here, but i understand how negative and sometimes toxic this thread can become for someone who visits and participates daily.
as helpful as you are, even moms need to relax too! you deserve to find your own source of healing and to take your own break. rest those typing fingers and that insightful mind to deal with yo own stuff :herb:

you’ve already done above and beyond for this thread, and there’s no need to worry about leaving anything or anyone behind.
the ranting fam will still be here whenever you feel well enough to come back and we will welcome you back with hugs

  1. please add a trigger warning and use the “blur spoiler” or “hide details” option if you want to mention a method of self-harm (just keeping the community safe— i’m not chastising ya)

  2. @stronglcve and @anon55976316 gave some really good advice for dealing with self-harm. if you’d like, you can also check out the self-harm recovery link here (it’s also in the original post, aka the very first post) there are much better alternatives than doing what you are right now, and there is help you can get and people you can talk to :cherry_blossom: it might seem hard, but i believe you can let go of that unhealthy way to cope

It’s OK.

Thank you…

It does. I feel completely worthless. No one would care if I disappeared…

Is chest pain normal?..

Thank you.

Awww, thanks. But yes, I’m serious. The site seems legit

So imma start my first rant with how awful people can be. Just the other day, I was walking down the street with my friend and some guys called her out for being ‘spotty’. She felt so self conscious afterwards that she didn’t want to go to the cafe and she started crying. I was soooo pissed off at those boys.

Okay, boo. First of all, if it can’t be fixed in 30 seconds, don’t comment on it!

i’m sure people realise their flaws and insecurities already, so why point them out?
Just keep yo nasty ass comments to urself honey. Words alone can seriously damage someone’s self esteem and mental health! You have no idea how much words can hurt somebody.

My friend is very healthy, In fact, I often make fun of her jokingly at how she’s eating a salad while my fat ass is inhaling a KFC. So her spots aren’t caused by an unhealthy diet. And she also washes her face as often as anyone else so it’s not that she’s unhygienic either!

She knows she has acne, so why point it out? It’s not as if she can wipe it off with a makeup wipe! It’s the same with when people comment on weight, religion, sexuality like STFU it’s who they are, or it’s not their fault! Leave them the fuck alone!

I agree! While its true that Actions speak louder than words, but words also have the power to scar a person. Its better to keep our unnecessary comments to ourselves rather than blabbing them out in public. Cuz physical scars may fade away after time, mental scars don’t…

And…I’m pretty sure that there’s another Ranting Thread on the forums (not to be rude or anything :face_with_hand_over_mouth:) Feel free to check it out and rant away all you want!!! Its a GREAT therapy, yo!!!

ikr??

I don’t ever let random people get to me-you’ll always have fools who will judge you, whether it’s out of jealousy (most likely) or their own insecurities (they want to feel better about themselves). These “humans” that bullied your friend “wasted” their time-they gave attention to someone else when they could have been doing other things. People sometimes have a tendency to say hurtful things and you can just ignore them (not give them any time of the day), move on. If a person takes time out of their day to comment about someone’s appearance and how awful it is, then they obviously have nothing better to do in their life-guys, be more mature, treat others with respect. If you can’t act like civilized dudes, then perhaps it’s time for you to get a taste of your own medicine.

OP that stuff drives me nuts! I obsess over my face, but I have adult acne issues caused by hormone imbalance, so I’m never 100% clear faced. Commenting on that kinda stuff is so rude! :rage:

Right! That’s why my friend has acne!

I don’t understand why we have celebrities in our world. I don’t like the fact that these human beings are favored more than regular human beings. It’s unfair and stupid. We’re all human, so why do we need celebrities?

Stuff like birth control or steroid injections from a dermatologist can help, but it’s so expensive.

I get so jealous of my friends who can get away with sleeping in make up or washing their face only once a day. I have to keep a strict skin care routine just to keep a halfway decent face, and even then I still get acne! :disappointed_relieved:
