I think I’m done
Forums are just poison. Social media is poison.
I’m tired of the same claptrap.
Maybe time to take a break.
I think I’m done with trying to reach anyone actually.
Stay peaceful.

Re: I think I’m done
Look after yourself and Ben firstly, Eds, this is only a small forum, comprising a disparate bunch of egotists. All of whom think they are right. That includes me. It's not worth giving yourself stress or making yourself ill over.
And some forums are super friendly.
Don't let the bullies win.

Re: I think I’m done
Hope you re-consider, Eddie, but I respect your decision. I feel much the same at times.
It's been nice meeting you and Ben on here, and I hope this is just au revoir and not goodbye.

Forums and social media are neither "good" nor "bad"...
They simply are..
A forum is not "poison" -- in and of itself -- but in effect is rather simply a meeting place for people to join in, and share select opinions, thoughts, experiences, even feelings..
What can be potentially "poisonous" on any forum is allowing certain 'toxic' individuals to have too much negative influence, to follow their own personal agendas, even build up their nasty little gangs -- in this case not only the more obvious offenders like Major/Stormee and 'Catman' Phil, but also those nasty little 'trolls' like Horatio and Nems that you even allowed to befriend you on here..

Re: I think I’m done
Eddie, I haven't been around so i'm not too sure what's been going down.
But i've seen your thread about losing your voice.
The virus that gave you laryngitis has knocked the stuffing out of you.
Respiratory viruses notoriously do this, flu virus being one of the worst,
but they all do it to some extent.
They strip you of all your physical and emotional reserves.
Nothing's left in the tank.
To coin a phrase - 'your defences are down'.
Plus you've had some big changes in your life, with your hubby & son both temporarily being away.
Allow yourself sufficient time to recover, be very kind to yourself and pamper yourself rotten.
And you'll be as good as new again, you'll see !

Re: I think I’m done
Lots of folks on forums ain't right in the head. That's why they post on them. No dealing with real people that they really know. I try to remember that. I've also embraced the idea of blocking folks that add nothing to my life, which is something I swore I'd never do, but now realize there's no need for that toxic shit in my life.
Social media is different in that people can't be nearly as fake as too many people know the truth.
Besides, you'll miss my Facebook posts......

Oh eddie, I hope you don't leave for long as you're a lovely girl and I'd hate to see you turn into a DICKHEAD!
Sorry, eddie. Play that song?

Re: I think I’m done
aw, eddie, girl, i'm sorry
this is a shitty time of year for you because of Lisa, plus ben is away so is your son, plus you've been ill. shit! i'm surprised you can stand up straight right now.
lots of good on forums and social media but when you're feeling off and want something to cheer you up and all you see is sniping and negativity then it sucks. we can all benefit from taking time out now and again
excellent post from Jules. take her advice and just take time to recharge.
call me or text me if you like. i don't have your number any more (i lost all my contacts when i got a new phone and sim card)
here for you if you fancy a rant
take it easy
