Okay, so there's a difference between feeling blue and neediong a little help with a little problem, and disturbingde[ressing s**t. But we need to post depressing s**t sometimes, and we also need sometimes to be able to post stuff about little but still worrying problems without seeing depressing s**t. So why don't we have a subforum where we all get our way? :)

Erm...the haven is for when people are feeling down, so of course there are going to be depressed people there.

But there are these people who are tired of going to the Haven to post about some small problem of theirs and finding "attention-seeking" depressed posts like mine by "attention-seeking" depressed people like me and would have me chased off the board if they could. :oops:

I'm only trying to spare them the annoyance of having to read my posts, which seem to bother them, but if they go out of their way to read them and pick on me then I guess there isn't much I can do.

I wouldn't put it in those terms, Ana, But if they don't like what you are posting, then they shouldn't be reading it.
