I wasn’t even aware an argument had ensued here, what a relief. A place populated by mentally and emotionally unstable people is bound to create tension and the smallest conflict of opinions act as flint and create a spark which ignites a full blazing inferno. The best you can do is avoid it all together and allow it to die down rather than attempt to mitigate it. People here will bicker and cause drama regardless of any scolding or words that try to bring them to their senses.

I don’t see why people glorify arguments here although I am plenty guilty of igniting and taking part in them myself. It’s entertainment if anything as the onlookers cheer for their favorite team (the one that appears to be winning) and then throw objects at the losing opponent. This mob mentality is also why I hate engaging in arguments here, it is not a battle of logic but rather a battle of creating a facade of knowledge and intellect while also maintaining the mental energy to continually reiterate your opinion, regardless of what the other person has said. It’s a battle of perseverance, not wit or knowledge. I hate this place, why am I here

I agree, to be honest I just don’t have any other place to go. I go through depressive phases as I’m bipolar, but overall I would describe myself as a positive person. I’m here primarily because I’m incredibly lonely and am intrinsically a very socially inclined person, I hate that about me. The absence of like minded people to associate and mingle with leaves me with a strong sense of emptiness and sadness. This place is far too negative for my liking, but it’s the only place where there is a diverse audience of people, many of whom are actually sensible. I like a good handful of the people here, although it pains me to see them experience such onerous, tragic circumstances both physically, mentally and emotionally. God, I need friends. How are you doing?

Well that’s a good thing, right? Being alive means there’s still an opportunity and chance for things to become better. Aside from financial and medical circumstances, most are not perpetual and can be manipulated with motivation and the utilization of opportunities, hey you never know!

Man, I’m sorry to hear that, school testing is the worst. I’ve always been a particularly carefree person so tests never stressed me out much, you just gotta take things as they come, you know? The key is being confident in your abilities and the knowledge that is required to pass the test. Confidence can be accrued by studying in a calm manner, you just need to pretend you’re interested in the subject. Sit back and see things in retrospect, many times people magnify the significance of things and drive themselves mad by besetting themselves with this false manifestation.

It’s just a test, what’s the worst that could happen? You fail? Then what? Most academic failures can be compensated through other means, even if that means you have to repeat the semester in attempt to have another chance. If you do need to redo things, why is that bad? Take that as an opportunity to do even better. As long as you’re doing the best you can, don’t blame yourself for your failures but rather learn from them and swear to do better. Academic failure isn’t as bad as people make it out to be, but maybe that’s just my idea. Good luck anyhow! Take a breather and reward yourself, alright?
