I hate you, I really do. Well, most of you. Ok, I don’t hate you, I just think most of you are not helping, not always. I came to this site and since the beginning I’ve been wondering why you comment a lot in some post and you ignore others (which sometimes are desperate screams for help, and no, I’m not talking about me, I’m talking about a lot of people who come here with the hope of being helped and you just try to find something interesting to be amused for a while). Really, why do you like ignoring some of the post and commenting in others (sometimes useless commentaries).

The people here aren’t psychologists waiting to help anyone who posts. This website is for people to post their suicide stories and perhaps get a commentary on them. I think we’re fortunate to have so many people who do in fact take the time to try and help others on here. Sometimes it helps to have frivilous commentaries; it makes people laugh and cheers them up.
i agree with Scar504
Well, I’m here for the same reason as anyone else; life is all fuckered to hell and shit sucks. Generally speaking. Some people have other reasons for being here, but that’s mine. If I ignore some posts and comment on others, it’s because that’s what I felt like doing at the time. I’m under no obligation to spread my attention any further than I’d like to, and I can’t always relate to everything I read here. I’m not a fan of false sincerity or cliche’d responses, so I feel it’s in my best interest to avoid making comments that might fall under those two categories.
This is my first time on, second comment, and i havent responded to posts already, just because it is difficult, especially when someone is writing about how shit things are and their plans for suicide, i can’t provide help when i can’t even help myself.
Hey w8ing2die,
You are absolutely correct…welcome to SP btw.
To the OP…none of us are collecting a paycheque here young lady…we are all either suicidal or suicide survivors…and if I’m not mistaken…I don’t owe anybody here anything. I give of my time when I am feeling well…and try to comment on as many posts as I feel able…or ones that I feel I have something to offer. I believe I even commented on one of yours…correct? And how did that go?
So yeah…sometimes it sucks trying to help people…and they turn around and abuse you for your trouble…or worse…whine. If not for the random posts and hijackings that help us survivors cope while trying to help…there wouldn’t be anyone here to comment on anyone’s posts. Is that what you would like? So if I feel like I have something to offer you…and I can handle the emotional mess…well I will comment…but until you start paying me…you don’t own me or anyone else…quit being so demanding…and get out there and answer some posts and do your share…or shut the frig up.
ooooh somebodies tired and cranky
Oh yeah….ME had a bad day…but thanks for asking and thinking about someone other than yourself. Hope I haven’t been too mean…but you kinda asked for it now didn’t you?
Do you want our help? We are here…when we can be…and we don’t discriminate…but some of us can’t deal with certain demographics or issues…so we just don’t…it’s not personal.
Thankyou, and the OP need not feel jilted, since ‘tired and cranky’ your tone may be, but it is sincere and caring, even caused me to smile.
@ w8ing2die
You are too kind…but I just unleashed my fury on an unsuspecting soul. And because it is not my post…I can’t delete it. Yes, I am tired and cranky…but that is no excuse. Glad I could make you smile…maybe next time I’ll make you laugh…even though it will probably be “at” me…hahaha
Going to Bed
Peace

You are not understanding what I’m talking about. My example: I wrote a post when I was, really, destroyed (as I said, I’m using an example of myself only because I can’t be sure about others people feelings) and it had like 93 comments. I can say, and I’m sure about it, that at least half of the comments are about a religious discussion. Not help for me or anyone else (just a part is help for me and for other person that wrote a comment). That is what I’m talking about, when people here uses post only for discussions about things that are totally useless.
While it is true that people here, (as well as anywhere else where conversation takes place on planet earth) get off track, it isn’t really fair to hate them. When you talk to someone in real life does the conversation remain on topic for every single sentence? No, of course not, people veer off in other directions. The only difference is that here, the topics are often of grave importance.
If people are spamming your posts with off topic conversation that bothers you, delete their comments or ask them to refrain from doing so. We can’t stop, and/or censure people from being inattentive some of the time. They aren’t doing it to spite you, or because they think your problems are unimportant.
I said I don’t hate them. Never mind, I’ll shut up.
Hey PennyroyalTea,
Never mind shutting up….I should shut up. I owe you a big apology. I didn’t understand what you were referring to…and then I went and looked. omg…you were hijacked. I read your other post a week ago…and haven’t seen you since. I can’t say what happened exactly on your post today without going back to look…but I for one apologize for my part in it…and my cranky ass comment to you on this post.
Sooo Sorry
