It’s been four and a half years since I visited this site. My last post was a suicide note. I lived through what followed, and I won’t go into details.
Whiskered-Fish, you still around? Your comments are what tipped me over the edge enough to not finish myself off. Your username ironically helped with that- I couldn’t let my pet catfish live life without me, after so long with me (sitting at 25 years with that fish now).
Or Cordless? You were another amazing positive influence. I hope I can see you in the comments some time soon..
Looking back at my profile, there are so many of you who gave me positive attention that I desperately needed, and all of you may very well be the reason I walked home from a hospital alive.
I’m 27 now. I think I was 21 when I made my first post. It’s cathartic being back here again.
To the site administrator, thank you so much for keeping this website up for so long, and for preserving the data on here. I really needed to see where I was all those years back, and I hope I can reconnect with some people I spoke with earlier, if they made it too..
Looking back I usually end a post in a selfie.

Welcome back in the best way possible. I’ve only been on here a little over a year, I don’t think I’ve seen either of the users you mentioned but there are a few long time members. I hope the last 4 years have been good to you.
Thank you. I got my answer, thankfully. Hope you’re having a great day!
Still around still alive, welcome back to the world.
I was really active on the site back then. I went back and looked at your posts. I remember you. It never gets better, but it does get different. And if I’m really lucky, that difference makes the sun shine today. So thank you, slice of sunshine.
I still talk to Cordless and Che k in with her. She would likely love to hear from you.
Thank you so much! I do remember seeing your comments on here if I recall correctly. It’s been a long time. I’m glad to hear that- hope she’s doing alright these days. What’s new in life?
