This was one of my girls, Chelsea.

I realized I have lied to everyone on here

Hi jimi, I haven't read all of the responses yet. I do sort of relate. Things get mixed up in communicating on here. I feel I have one friend that is true to me here, but I like all opinions if I ask for help. I take what I think I can use to help me. I also do my best to help but am unsure of how to reply. So, for me it comes down to privacy, the feeling of community support, and a place to vent.

I don't think you are being phony. I haven't noticed many of your posts until recently, and I think you are a helpful, interesting person. Try not to worry too much, this isn't about lying, maybe more about being unsure of yourself. It happens to all of us, I think. best to you

Hi, you might not remember me but I was a member here 3 years before I left and recently rejoined.

I didn't at all perceive you as abrasive. I always found you very honest and thoughtful in your replies. You always struck me as a very fair minded person - I certainly thought well of you.

I understand if you don't want to make deep connections here, actually that is how I feel this time around too. It actually makes a lot of sense to be that way.

I think we all hide from ourselves in all honesty. That's who people are,we pretend not to care when deep down we are screaming but fear of rejection when depressed is overwhelming. They say try and feel united not apart and accept people for their mistakes. We all make them. Doesn't make us bad just another lesson in life. Hopefully we learn that one fast ,yet some go back and back to that lesson . They say it's your ego. Or it could be that voice in your head telling you what a true POS you are...they say that comes from lack of self esteem. Should we hate others who are making mistakes? Or give a smile a nod of encouragement and just love.

I don't hide from myself. Actually, I believe that if someone is seriously in treatment for his/her mental health s/he is being honest, or wants to be.

I find more unity among peers (others with mental illness) than with anyone else. Actually, that might be, for the most part, what this forum is about...unity among peers.

Good post. I believe we can give love and encouragement to someone even if we don't necessarily agree with (or understand) the person's actions.
