I’m so bad at responding to people’s topics

I just don’t know what to say. I feel bad because I want to say something but I don’t know what.

Me too. I forgot to tell the person who said she wasn’t turning sixty, but sexty, I thought that was funny. And others, I forgot to respond.

Same here. I’m more of a reader of the forum than a poster. It makes me feel kinda weird though, knowing who everyone is without anyone knowing me.

When I do post, it’s just to complain about how badly I feel, which doesn’t really help anybody.

When I don’t know what to say but would like to comment I often hit the like button

Yeah me too. I talk about myself, and though I try to be helpful to others, I find myself not knowing what to say, or being afraid to speak. And it’s not just posts asking for help. Even in the lounge I don’t know what to say, or am afraid to say anything. I feel that if I could post more to other people’s topics, I wouldn’t be hated as much.

It’s the same way with every forum or chatroom I participate in.

I recognize your profile picture, so I know I’ve seen you post something at least twice. Do you know who I am? I don’t respond to people’s stuff very often either.

I just responded to someone and I feel like what I said was all wrong. Maybe it’s part of my OCD. But the problem is that this doesn’t explain why I am hated.

You’re not hated
And you can delete your own posts now after longer than one hour,

I know. I’m torn because I don’t want people to feel ignored but also maybe I shouldn’t have said anything. I am hated though.

I often say Inappropriate things. I say what’s ever on my mind

Reality checking: I don’t know you but i read most of the day this forum and i noticed some of your posts, you have no reason to think you’re hated here

I hear you but I don’t believe it. That’s okay though I will try not to worry about it too much.

I think I’m hated too. Hopefully just paranoia. I’m sure you aren’t hated!

You’re probably not hated. I dunno I just feel like I am and that people are tired of me being here. Well not just here, but generally in every group or forum, chatroom, etc.

I recognize your name and picture too. I think I remember you posted some artwork of yours before.

I just checked and I’ve made about 400 posts since December. Apparently I post a lot more than I thought. I really do wish I could be more helpful to other people though, but maybe I’m just not there yet in terms of my recovery. My illness is still pretty new, and I spend lots of time feeling sad and hopeless about it. So maybe when things get better I’ll have more positive things to say. :blush:

I’m still bad at reading and understanding some posts so i just quote a little text and talk about that :slight_smile:

Yes, I post a lot of my artwork. That’s probably what most people know me for on here.
