Need someone to talk to? - General

oh god these nicknames, sorry for offtop. got 'intriguing number' when I have problems with number 22, so I thought about 22, and I never told anyone why 22 is bothering me [sp]and there was a thread on FP with guy who was pursued by 22 too[/sp] [sp]and something is going to happen in 22 days[/sp]

If you were 'pleasant scarf' talking to 'poetic glove'. Thanks. A whole ton.

My favorite username that i've seen so far is multi-purpose toes.

Everyone I got on there wanted to talk to a professional so when I told them they had to pay for that they all went crazy on my ass.

I just helped out a sedate coach. Okay, I just vented out how I want to invade a third world country with my 500 elite man, the response was pretty sweet they would of even support it!

I was a listener on this site for a while, prevented some guy from committing suicide and we still talk to this day, although I was on there the other week and got listening to some girl who was having quite a few problems, she asked if we could talk over email for a while as she had to do some things away from her computer, so we did but then out of nowhere the emails from her stopped. No idea what happened to her but I hope she's okay and contacts me again at some point as I'm dead worried. Brilliant site to vent and listen to people however.

I really want to help people but I'm suffering from severe depression.. I can barely help myself right now [editline]5th September 2013[/editline] I would talk too but I'm horrible at expressing myself, siiiigh

ive been using this site for the past hour and everyone i've encountered seems so mundane and their problems are pathethic to say the least.

Of course you probably wont find any crack junkie looking to quit

[QUOTE=D3TBS;42092952]ive mostly encountered relationship problems and all that. Of course you probably wont find any crack junkie looking to quit[/QUOTE] I feel like I could help with stuff like that, but what worries me is that I'll come across someone who's depressed or suicidal and I really don't know how much help I could be. I haven't tried the site yet and honestly I'm a little nervous to, and that's why. I don't know how much of a help I could be to somebody who needed [I]serious[/I] help.

I think they actually advise you only to listen and not to help people, but only listen to them. Provided, you cant help but help help

Well, I might as well have talked to my own father about my problems for the past 30 minutes, seeing as that accomplished nothing

This guy has been sending me photos of harmless kids in PE class asking if it was "homoerotic" and I kept saying no. Then he sends another picture and it's full on [I]child porn[/I], and I immediately exited out and cleared my history. Holy fuck, what the hell is wrong with people on this site?

I retract my last statement, I found someone who actually listened

My name is "irresistable drug" god help me [editline]8th September 2013[/editline] I had to help out some dude whose girlfriend wouldn't respond on Facebook. I tried to be nice, but... wow.

I just helped out a girl, she was going through some hard times with her grandmother going through surgery and her aunt was diagnosed with cancer. We spoke for two hours. After that I keept getting trolls... I mean this is a website to help people, not for people to go and troll.

really? I only got 1 troll so far, most of them are normal people who just look for help. I met a dude, he was only 19 years old but he was on his way to take a masters degree, fucking crazy. He had problems with his family and his girlfriend with suicidal tendencies. Weird stuff but I just told him to chill and helped him a bit with his girlfriend and he was pretty happy in the end.

The person I vented to wasn't much of a helpful person. Usually just responded with "I don't know, but just try and do x" although its obvious advice. But, I really do feel a lot better by just letting my feelings out so it was worth it in the end.

This site is actually amazing. It feels good to talk to people about their problems and it's also good to have people who can listen to my pathetic rants about stuff.

Phew! This is a really nice site. I just had an hour long talk with someone who had a crush on some girl for three years who just broke up with his best friend and wanted to know if he should ask her out. In the end he left as a pretty satisfied guy.

My listener got disconnected before I could finish talking to them :(

some guy punched his dog because he wouldnt stop barking. The dog had a seizure then it died Not sure if it was a troll, but I couldnt say much to the dude, its his fault he punched his dog. But thank god that faulty chatroom disconnected us in time. "Oops, its not my fault!"
