> I'm a little angry that someone thinks there is something the matter with me.
You talking about me?
What do you mean by 'something is the matter with me'?
I thought you posted stuff before about some difficulties that you have...
With stress around school
With your emotions at times
With your thoughts about death and dying etc
I thought those were things that you thought you struggled with at times.
> I can't even be silly?Of course you can be silly...
But silliness (to the best of my knowledge) is a kind of humour.
And people tend not to laugh when they feel hurt in response.
So maybe think about humour... And whether the joke is funny to all...
Or whether someone might feel hurt in response.
A good question to ask is 'if they said that to me then would I feel hurt in response'?
> I don't like it when someone thinks there is something wrong with me.I thought that you had posted about some things that you struggle with.
I have loads of things that I struggle with...
There is quite a lot 'wrong' with me IN THAT SENSE
Oh yes there is indeed.
> I don't need *any* meds, and I can prove it.Or make a right *ss of myself trying...
Sigh.
I'm not trying to back you into a corner into taking your meds.
Your decision.
I'm just wondering...
How much you are getting to the point where you might be inclined to say something in the heat of the moment...
That you might well regret later.People point out the relationship between your medication and your mood / disinhibition because people care about you. If we didn't care we wouldn't bother responding to you at all. People respond because they do care. But sometimes people don't know what to do. They don't know how to say the 'right thing'. The wonderful magical words that will make you feel better.
I know that from my first person pov...
I can't tell whether meds help me or not.
From a relatively objective 'other person' pov I think the answer is far more obvious...
I'm like that with my period too.
All I know is I'm jolly well distressed.
All gg knows is I'm getting my period and I'll feel better in a couple days.Sigh.
> There is nothing wrong with me. No one here knows me in real life. No one here can conclude that there is something wrong with me because they don't know me.
I thought... That you posted quite often about things that you didn't think were going so right.It isn't a black and white issue.
You aren't all just perfectly fine
Or otherwise there is something wrong with you
It isn't one or the other.
Everybody here struggles at times I dare say...
That is why we are here...
