Please don't post anything that could lead others to feel accused or put down, and please be sensitive to the feelings of others, even when yours may be hurt.
It might help to remember there are people posting here for whom English is not their first language. It would probably further a supportive atmosphere here if you just ask them (or others) to clarify things. And while it's fine to come to the defense of others (or sometimes ourselves) Dr. Bob asks we all remain civil while doing so - two wrongs don't make a right...
If you have questions about this or about posting policies in general, or are interested in alternate ways of expressing yourself, please see the FAQ: http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/faq.html#civil
Follow ups regarding these issues should be directed to Admin, and should of course, be civil. Dr. Bob has oversight over deputy decisions, and he may choose a different action.

I can traduce it if you want...lol
"I would like to buy hard drugs"...
Funny...lol I can find a dealer for you if you want! hahaha ;-) I'm just kidding.
I just think some people lack of respect and didnt realize that we live in a world where at least 116 official languages exist. That's not because this website is in English that the people who lack some "pratice" and "learning" of this language don't have the right to to post some messages... at least we try and do the best we can...
That's better to try that do nothing at all...

Its very understandable that people have trouble posting in complete sentences when they feel anxious and depressed...
...nonetheless, please don't jump on me but I do find it hard sometimes to comprehend some postings on here and I'm not going to direct it towards anyone in particular.
I guess one of my difficulties in parsing things is when there are no paragraphs or complete sentences.
A post is written like this:
Its been hard this week with the klonopin up 2 mg my doctor says that I have to keep trying with the bipolar things I dont know can anyone help me used to take depakote too
I'm really not trying to mock anyone but I can't understand postings like that. There's no sentence or paragraph. So its hard to respond at all.
And yes, I know for some English is not a first language.
Il est dommage .. mais j'ai oublié presque tous les français que j'ai étudié à l'université.(courtesy of Google.... parce que ... parce que ... J'ai oublié:)
I guess what I'm saying is.... that I can understand the frustration with trying to help people when things are incoherent........so I both understand why people can write incoherently and can sympathize and I can also understand the frustration so there's no need for the "f* that"....
...because while the post may have been harsh, there is something underlying it.
Oh, and with the Google translation (or any machine translation), its best to run the paragraph or page twice backwards -- that is, if you're going to write something, put it in and translate it into the language you want, and then put that result back in and put it back into your language.
If it doesn't make sense at all, there's a pretty good chance it won't make sense to a native speaker.-- Jay

You're right... I have to admit that I have a big difficulty with my sentences...like putting the word in the right order or put somes "," in the middle of my sentences. I think it can be hard to understand what I write sometimes...And no, I dont feel personnaly attacked about what you write ;-)
Google translator is not very good, even if you search for one word or a complete sentence. Most of the time, the result dont make any sens. Some words stay in "French" and others don't... that's why it's write in big letters in the left corner of the website that it's Google Traduction BETA...lol I think it's a Beta version since forever...hahaha
Anyway, that's easy to forget a language you study at school if you dont pratice it in your daily life. I explain that point more clearly under...
I lived with only speaking english rommattes for 3 years and I had to learn fast my english. I was put in a context where I have to learn the english and speak it also, but in a faster way... I had no choice... Yes, my english level improve a lot in that 3 years period of time.
I move back into my native small city, where only 1 % of the population speak in english. That's all in french here... and I realize that after a couple of months, my english level decrease a lot. In fact, a lot of things I learn, like my verb tense or grammars tips are now completly forgotten...
Too bad... but it's like this. Some people can learn a lot of other languages with no problems at all, and other like me have to pratice a lot and need more times...
That's hard for me also to understand all the post here. Some people, who speak in english, don't take the time to write their message very well. That can be hard to follow for me... The same apply for French speaking people, they tend to use a very bad french writing... they use a lot of slang...
Well that's it...lol
I hope that what I write is comprehensive...
Bye!
Vincent ;-)

Hm, you're probably referring to me then? English is my mothertongue, but i really don't think much of the writing itself, and lose interest once i've jotted something down. or i dislike the extra artifice of formalized writing? sorry, ask me to clarify anything if you want...

Humm I don't know who referring to who exactly...that thread is hard to follow...lol
Anyway , I was not pointing out anyone... For me, it always taking a while before I understand something, even if it's in french...hahaha
I guess my memory is now on the "disable" mode...Another time, thanks to the benzo drugs for that...amnestic side-effect... You begin to forget things, after you begin to search things or words or anything else, after you say something and 2 minutes after you don't even remember what you said 2 minutes ago... i'm like that now...
I wonder how I can continue to drive my car and don't have an accident...lol Well I had a small one last december but not because of the benzo drugs...more because of the Seroquel-XR...
Anyway, out of subject again...
Sorry, I had an urge need of writing something! lol
Bye!

Humm it's going very slowly... I'm able now to exercises more, but I have some panic attacks that occur sometimes... I just try to fight them and continue to exercises, even if i'm doing a panic attack...The worse thing that I can feel is an increase of my pulse rate and I know now that I Will not die of a heart attack! lolBut I continue to go slowly... at least I go the more often that I Can...
So that's it... no big change...but a little improve for sure...
Thanks for asking mister ;-)
Have a great day!
Vincent ;-)

Lol... Well in a good "french" I will say... Il fait donc bien chaud aujourd'hui, je crois que je vais aller me baigner dans la piscine...
I would say it in my very "QUÉBÉCOIS" french slang... "Calice qui fait chaud ciboire, j'ai juste le goût d'me garocher dans piscine ostie..."
French from the Quebec province is different of the ones used around the world, when it's time to speak it we use a lot of slang... that's nothing to compare with the french from France or the french that the english peoples learn at school...lol
Same in English I suppose... ? I Remember a good movie with a really STRONG english accent... "Fargo" was the title of the movie... really nice... I liked it at the time... and find the English accent from the guys so charming.... English from England of course.... that's turn me ON !!! lol
Ho that's remember me a song title also... "You turn me on" by Emerson Lake and Palmer...lol
