ORIGINAL: kitkat105 I admit that was the last straw this time. I just really can't handle the lack of compassion, maturity and intellect of some people on this forum so like the others recently I am done. I admit if anyone wants to keep in touch, I'm on that other site as kitkat105. I admit, the strange part is I'll only miss this thread, really. If a relatively calm rational discussion about an obviously mentally disturbed person upsets you this much, then you are likely making the correct choice. Regardless of whether or not the posts on that thread were educated as to the particular issues is really irrelevant. I've never been suicidal and cannot have sufficient empathy for that mindset. I've only been on the "other side". I've even seen the threat of such, used for attention in the worst way possible. With no real intent to follow through. Just as you see some comments as lacking compassion, maturity and intellect......some of us that have been on the flip side of that situation see that person/s choice of coping, as similar.....in addition to extremely selfish, manipulative and self centred. Neither is 'right'. It just is what it is. Apparently the issue hit a personal nerve with you. Not every poster on these forums will have the knowledge of your own personal issues and hot buttons. Only you are responsible for them.....not the other posters here. And THAT is why I believe you are making the correct choice. If it is in your best interest not read and participate in threads that are 'hot buttons' for YOU, then avoiding them is possibly a good choice. I would advise however, when you are in a more stable mindset, to observe from a place of less emotion, exactly WHY this is so distressful for you and how you can remedy that. How you can deal with your personal shit so that others do not have the power to upset you so.
