my closed thread?

[pottywoman]

Why did my thread get closed? Nothing awful was said in it and I was just about to reply with something good but I guess no one wants to hear it. THis just isn't working out for me. I'm too much of a pain to deal with. Imagine this thread will be deleted but it just wasn't right to close the other one. THere are many threads that go on forever. I'll deal with things on my own. Closing it only made it harder for me.

You are right nothing awful was said. IMO I think the thread was closed for exactly what Donna stated. We're all hoping you'll follow up on some of excellent suggestions provided.

We DO understand how you are feeling...it hard to look ahead and make choices...afraid the next choice will lead to more unwanted pain, failure and frustration....but what if you are right...what if the birthcontrol does help...it may not cure it all the way around, but what if it helps and you'll never know unless you take that plunge?

Maybe it seems we're all doing better out here than you....but I can assure you: you are definitely NOT ALONE, k?

Keep us updated on how and what you're doing... :)

PottyWoman, what you are saying is not fair to the many posters who did not close the thread. You can't know that they "don't want to hear it". It is also unfair to Donna, whom I have seen over and over to be an extremely compassionate person, and who has offered you heartfelt advice and support in the past.

The point is not to deal with things "in your own". It is to take the advice you have gotten in that thread, and in numerous threads prior to that, and use it to access the kinds of help this forum isn't equipped to give anyone. (The internet cannot change a person's biochemistry in a significant medical way, for example).

This is suppose to be a support group and when a thread is closed that is telling that person to shut up. I have had enough of it. This can be deleted I don't care. All I can say I'm not the only person leaving this site and that should say someting.

PW, We have all tried to help you repeatedly, however, we are not trained to give the kind of help you need. You really do need to seek professional help to help you through a few things. There is no shame in seeking the proper help when it is needed. The shame is in not seeking it, or not taking the advice that would help you. We ARE a support group, and a very good one. However, a support group is not meant to take that place of qualified professionals, or friends and family. You need to broaden your support system base. You have been very depressed for quite some time. A professional could assist you with this through talking and/or medication. We cannot.

Threads get closed for different reasons. Sometimes to continue the subject at a different time...sometimes to prevent a possible problem developing, sometimes because the thread has gone in a different direction....many different reasons but not to say shut up. If someone is hurt or upset about the board they should contact Jill, Donna or someone....we do not want anyone to just leave! :love:
