Margy, did you ever stop to think that seeing lots of friends supporting you would help? What's wrong with people posting on here about problems? Just because it's not rape or whatever, doesn't make it serious. How about smoking pot, leaving #FC because you lost OP, that's not rape, you get worked up about it. PEEL should be a good place, not somewhere where you get bitched at because you posted one of your problems...

Good luck Bender_waffles!

Nasty: That sucks. And also, so bizarre because she seems like one of the well adjusted ones. Having one of your family want to kill themselves is really scary- my uncle did the same thing when I was about 11. Luckily, there are ways out of it- curable ways. The same uncle turned out to be schizophrenic, but he's got that under control so I'm sure waffles will be able to do the same, especially if she doesn't have an incurable mental condition.
Marg: There's no need to be an insensitive little bitch.

Hello folks BTW, I'm back.   :)
Drove all the way (220ish miles) to Norwich to miss my friends completely, but what the hey!   :D

Sorry to hear about your sis, Nasty. Hope she comes out the other end of this...well...not depressed anymore.   :hmpf:

Yes, Margarita, all valid points are made in your post. Sure, many kids are depressed in these days.  That doesn't make it right.  It only shows that our society is really f'd up. I don't consider myself a mental health professional therefore I'm relieved to have B_W in the appropriate care.  Can that make me a bad mother?  Some people may think that.  I have given my kids (Nasty Pasty & Bender Waffles) a freedom that I am proud of.  Yeah they don't make their beds or clean their rooms, but neither did I.  They do however have the freedom to express themselves.  Whether it is verbally, artistically, musically.  My point is that they have to find themselves, I can't chose their path for them.  I don't think Nasty Pasty made a post for his sister (Bender Waffles) to get sympathy.  I think he was just hoping for a kind word or two from his and her fellow peelers.  I was shocked and pleased to read the numerous positive posts and not surprised to read any of the negative ones.  That as I stated before is the freedom of choice.  Sure I too am not the most sympathetic person in the world, just ask ANY of my family members, but I do pray for them to find the guidance they need.  This includes my daughter (B_W).  I like to think in the vein of "Its a Wonderful Life".  How many lives would be different if a soul didn't exist.  How many people would suffer from the non-existance of anyone that may have helped them through a difficult time. 

I thank all of you for your thoughts and comments.  I will pass them along.  :D

If they can lay down a reasonable schedule, Roskilde Fesitval is gonna fucking kick so much arse this year!!

Of course, there are shitty names on the list, but at least eight of the good ones made me spaz out in euphoria. And it's not even an overstatement. When I saw The Mars Volta, Fantômas and Mew on there, I think I let out a tiny squeal... Partially out of surprise, but definitely also out of joy. Buy tickets, people!

Ah. Would that make her feel better?

OR, A more typical Jeremy response:

Then she would drink a gallon of gasoline and go shopping. (If she's anything like you <3)

Perhaps B_W wouldn't want this to be discussed on a message board. Anyone think about that? Big brother? Mummy?

Nah, we're all friends here.  Even better, friends that don't interact with her any way except via this message board, so she can easily ignore us if we get on her nerves.

Anyhoo, the remote servers at my school are fucked up.  Which really sucks since I needed to log on with SSH to turn in my homework properly.  I wound up just zipping and e-mailing to my profs, which they hate, but I think it's better to be annoying and have proof I finished on time than to be obsequious.

This is a really late reply, but I hope you get through this B_W. I was depressed a few years ago as well (at 14, scarily) and I was lucky enough to get through it. Now look at me! I can do whatever I want! Hweeeee!  :p

Don't worry about that. Yesterday, I printed out the transcript from this thread, and showed it to her when I visited. She seemed very happy and wanted to thank you all very much for your support in her time of need.

"she seems to thrive on negative attention.|

not really... i didnt feel like reading this for awhile. i guess i am insensitive but for me she's just another girl and that was my general opinion about that kind of thing.

" You of course being an expert on Americans and on the hard life.  Whatever."

i wasnt taking about americans as a race but rather as the people who's life is pretty good in average [i mentioned that if there's a serious cause i take my words back]. i wont say i had a really hard life, but yes it was shitty. i wont go in details here...

"You, know Marg, when I first started posting here, I hated you. After a while, you stopped being a bitch, so I didn't hate you. Now I hate you again [other stuff]"

after awhile, you get kinda cynical...

"What's wrong with people posting on here about problems?"

nothing. what's wrong with people posting their opinion?

"leaving #FC because you lost OP, that's not rape, you get worked up about it."
no, i left #fc because of the intelligence level that you just displayed in that sentence... just for the record, slimmy deoped me after i left #fc...and if it was just +o, wouldnt i come back eventually? but i kinda dont feel like it

"Yes, Margarita, all valid points are made in your post. [other stuff]"

it's kinda true, but with too much freedom comes alienation too... my parents never asked me how i feel and i think they should've... it's not just about me, i think parents should be aware of stuff like depression because they might find their kids dead one day... good post, btw

Tell her that she's welcome for the support and that we hope that she'll recover soon.

And on another note, it's cool to see a family on PEEL, and it's also kinda scarey to have your mom on PEEL. Either way, cool.

Wooter: I agree with what you said. I mean I almost killed myself once just to get my sister to stop bugging me. It worked thank god. But sometimes people can't control their urges like others and they just burst out. So it's not something that is easy to cope with but you need to stay strong.

Also, I'm an athiest, hespanic, a gothic-hippie (hippie ways, gothic clothes), psycotic but not enough of one to kill myself, paranoid, adopted, despressed, 12 year old who often feels that she should be in high school rather than 6th grade.

I for one think Marg has some extremely valid points and I think if you lot are so hell bent on turning a message board into a group therapy session, then she's more than justified to rebuke it. Why is it only is the past decade or so that we suddenly have so many 'broken' 13 and 14 year olds? Is it so hard for baby boomers to raise well-adjusted kids?

This therapy culture and the associated rampant prescribing of mind-numbing drugs are only going to mask the real sociological cause (if there's even a valid condition to treat in the first place, which in the majority of cases is unlikely) whilst making pharmaceutical companies even richer.

Ok dude.... saying most of the US population embodies any list of characteristics is ignorant.  Now you're just trying to alienate yourself and make yourself an outsider.  That in itself is even more ignorant, and therefore you may have just made yourself out to be things that you hated.  Besides I could care less about what makes up the average american... or any other american for that matter: I hope they all die.

US culture is too diverse to be defined by any overriding characteristics.  Fuck, I'm too diverse to be described by any overriding chrarcterists.  Just in ethnicity I've got Italian, Slavic (Ukraine, bitch!), Mexican on a technicality, Dutch, Scotch, Irish, probably German somewhere, and God only knows what else.  And don't get me started on personality.

And ff, most of the federal legislature is Republican and "Christian" [sic].  That doesn't mean most of America is.  And yes, the average American is fatter than the average anywhere-elser.

Ben: unlike marg, you have a point.  We make too big a deal out of therapizing problems that may or may not exist.  However, that is no reason not to offer sympathy to someone under stress, despite the fact that because everyone has gone through something similar.

Also, anyone who thinks depression can be cured with drungs is a fucking idiot, plain and simple.

I mentioned prescription drugs, but didn't mean these drugs alone are the cure.
When I mentioned the illegal drugs, I meant that someone who is depressed can use them to temporarily forget all the bad feelings, and be reminded of good feelings, even if such feelings are artificial at that time. It gives you something to look out for, in a natural form then. You understand what I mean?
