I do sometimes. I’d get suspended or kicked off if i posted about everything i was thinking or feeling (not toward other people on the site, but things I was thinking about myself or the external world). But i also make posts sometimes that aren’t really how I’m feeling in the moment to try and make it look happier. Like its all gonna be ok even though i know it isn’t.

I definitely have to censor myself a lot on here. But I don’t mind because I like that others do the same.
It is sad though because I love debating and arguing a wide range of topics. But I guess this forum is more for support and less for general discourse.

I’m pretty much myself on the forum, lots of topics I pass on cause I have nothing to offer.
Some days I post and don’t put on anything , let alone a mask

I put on the mask cause when I talk about what’s bothering me I always get in trouble. Anytime I mention what happened to me in the past I just get treated like an idiot. And if I talk about my certain doubts and concerns I get told I just don’t want to get better even though I am doing everything I can. Feels bad yo. And then I won’t even get into the people who think I’m faking/lying.
So I tend to try to only focus on other people here and my smaller problems.
But it could be worse there are some cool people on here at least.
Sorry I’m mad today

I’m pretty much what you see in real life. I make a lot of spelling errors because everything is off the top of my head. I don’t think too deep about posting. I just post what i’d say if I was talking. Sometimes I censor myself to certain people or topics but it’s rare.

I’d say who I am on here reflects who I am in real life rather clearly. There’s really not a lot to me, lol.

I think I stay away from complaining about my problems too often. They are probably not as severe as many. I sound normal and intelligent in real life so even at day treatment I am encouraged to go back to work and live a normal life. It’s not as easy as it looks.

I have to censor myself and pretend to be someone I’m not a lot on this site because so many topics are off limits on this site. It’s really very sad.
Not too much. I talk this much in real life, too.

I’m pretty mich open about most things on here and in real life. I like to avoid getting in arguments with people on here. But i’m starting to be like that in real life as well.
I used to debate a lot of things, not necessarily on here but in real life. But I have slipped up and said some stupid stuff on here when I was off meds for the first time.
Hoping I don’t go back to that mode again.

No. I’m pretty laid back. However there are some sites and people in the offline world that I feel I need to do that toward.
I’ve had to bite my tongue a few times. But that goes with life in general. I pick my battles.
This isn’t the environment for those kinds of arguments, especially given that many of us are probably stuck in our points of view. There’s not much to be gained anyway of convincing people of your argument.

I definitely have to try hard to keep my mouth shut a lot of times. Probably not hard enough.
