I cried tonight, for the first time in a very long, long time. I cried because for once, in forever, I felt that I was welcomed into a community. I wish to thank WaitLonger, Jack, Teresa’s Child and Yoges for welcoming me into this community on such short notice. I didn’t realize just how much I felt alone until I read your welcoming words. For any of you reading these words, please know that your words, your meanings , and your intentions mean a great deal, within and outside of SP.

Genuinely surprised to find my username amongst the others here. I joined this forum perhaps at the same time as you, it’s just been a few days. I am not proud of with what I have been posting at all, so this really does come as a surprise.
I agree with you that there is some strange comfort in reading what others have on their minds here. It should make me feel worse that others suffer too, but that’s just one aspect of what goes on here. I’m glad you’ve been able to derive the comfort hidden beneath it all.
It’s like watching all these distant stars in a vast and dark sky and knowing that, although there is nothing you can do about it, you are one of them.
I didn’t realize that you are newly joined as well. Welcome to SP, sincerely. Do you have a name or alias, or shall we call you WL?
WL is fine, I don’t want any possibility of my real identity being revealed here…
Totally understandable.
Surprised to see my name on there as well. I’m honestly really bad at responding to this kind of post, but I wanted to acknowledge it and thank you, FarTooLong.
You’re very welcome TC. I’ve been trying to foster an attitude of gratitude to help combat my depression. Thanks again to you all.
If anyone here would like to join social conversations with SP users, we have a chatroom on kik and discord. (Kik is being deleted im 2020, so we’re slowly moving towards discord) but yeah you can message me as devinx7 on kik or https://discord.gg/c8DMXga on discord if you’d like
