I am having the WORST day.

I just got put on moderated posting on my favorite forum (www.guineapigcages.com/forum) because I made a thread about my suicidal thoughts after I was told I couldn't have a second guinea pig (they're social animals and mine could easily get depressed). Now, before you judge me, I'd like you to know that I DID have a second guinea pig, who I rescued from my sister, from 6/19/13 to 7/30/13. They were in a petstore cage unfortunately (I didn't have the money to upgrade just yet) so they fought. Well, while I was asleep the fighting got so bad that when I woke up, my new pig had a gaping wound in her neck, and her neck was bent, mouth open and teeth together.

THAT'S another reason why I'm so dang depressed. And the moderator hid my thread and caged me (which means all of my posts go through her, and this time she removed my PM capabilities, so my account is useless).

Another member (RodentCuddles) had made a thread stating "After being on medicine for the past 5 months my depression has once again hit me at full swing, I was 4 months self harm free until a couple of days ago. Last night I just lost it and sadly badly hurt myself, and no longer wanted to be here."
The mod said MY thread was INAPPROPRIATE and that THREATS OF SUICIDE (LIES!) should be TAKEN ELSEWHERE. I didn't make ANY "threats". I said the same thing as this chick did, and I got caged for it!

So yeah, I am BEYOND angry. I feel like my autism influenced my thinking that night, and that's why it must've come out wrong (even though it didn't)

Can anyone help me feel better? *sighs*
*cries until someone comes along*

Sorry you're having a crummy day. It is upsetting and painful when somebody smacks you down just for expressing how you feel. Shows a decided lack of Empathy on their part. :(

That's some nasty bad luck with your animals. If you can't upgrade your housing facilities yet, it might be best just to stick with the one, until you have some means of separating them when you can't be around to supervise. You certainly wouldn't want to see more carnage like that. 8O :eew:

Hope you feel better soon. :|
