or a Great way to reduce Stress, etc. as well. With my recent Cataract surgery on my left eye, there have been times I have experience pain and just a little bit of itchiness, etc. and find coming in here and posting for a while helps take my mind off of some of what is going on. And then also with the Stress of trying to sell our Condo, etc. the stress can get overwhelming as well. But seriously I find sometimes just being able to come in here and communicate and relate with others being able to talk about and share things with others helps make things more worth while as well. I know even when I may not be in here for as long as I would like some days, I would never want to be anywhere else as well. Thanks everyone, and have a wonderful rest of your weekend. ~~TINA~~

I was just mad not to long ago and I got on here and it made me feel real good. it helps me keep my mind off things I'm worrying about and just share my opinions and agree with others on subjects we like. I'm happy for you and I hope everything gets better.. It's good that you found something that will take away your stress because stressing isn't good trust me. well yeah take care.. you also have agood weekend my friend.. =] PAYOUT*

Yes, I find mylot a very good stress reliever. This is a very good place to come to just talk about problems you are having or just to talk in general. I enjoy mylot very much and I have made a lot of nice, or seemingly nice, friends here. I say this because I haven't met any of them face to face yet. Who knows? I may get to meet some of them one of these days. It's nice to know when some of them have experienced the same problems I have and we can help each other. Kathy.

When I first joined I was under a lot of stress, and that is what kept me coming here. I could talk, and could be of help to others, and make friends and see all over the world. It helps me formulate my philosophy about things and firm up what I stand for. I also get to grow my understanding of others. Yes, it takes your mind off of pain, but not by just numbing you out, but by opening you up to bigger things.

There are times this is true for me then others it's not. I really enjoy most of the discussions and as with you it's a great stress reliever to just 'share with friends'. Afraid there are times though when my mind is just not working or something and I can't make heads or tails of the discussions or there are a lot of 'depressing' ones which don't help me abit since I'm already depressed :( I still love myLot though and all my friends here :)

Hey Tina! I hope you are feeling a bit better now! I kind of feel the same way as you do! I was trying to explain that to my boyfriend earlier today. He doesn't understand why I spend so much time on the computer since he has never come near one at all and seems to be afraid to even try! I told him that it is my way of relaxing! I feel better when I am here at mylot talking to my friends and interacting in the discussions and it is really something that can't be explained to someone who doesn't come here themselves! I have tried to explain it to my other friends and they don't understand it either and think I am crazy! But, I don't care! As long as I am happy and I know what I get out of it that's all that matters! Mylot makes me feel better and that's all that counts as far as I'm concerned!

I'm new to the site but I'm so glad that I've found it. I was originally just trying to find some good ways of making little money from home since I'm expecting a little one soon and I can't work full-time anymore :( But that doesn't stop the bills from coming. And for the most part, everyone has been really nice and bring up really interesting topics. I'm just partially bummed that some people seem to post silly nonsense just for their few cents. I think conversations should have good meaning behind them. Not just, blah blah blah. Its nice to be able to relate to people. Seems hard to do that with my own friends lately :/

I do. It is nice to just get away from the stress. It is also nice to be able to talk about things with people that have no involvement in our situations and get an outside opinion of things.

I used to very active with Mylot but when I got eye problems, I stopped for two months. it's only now that I'm back to Mylot but i don't spend much time anymore. An hour or two is my only alloted time computering. I don't want to expose my eyes to computers for long hours, otherwise I will have eye problems again.

Sometimes Mylot is the source of my stress and pain! I get annoyed easily at some of the people on this website, and I find myself taking that anger and aggression into my real life. That's about when I decide I need to back off for awhile, which is what I'm doing now. I'm just responding to my friends discussions and starting a couple of my own now and then. Used to be I'd be on here for hours and hours each day.

I think myLot is a great place in the cyber world where you can hang out and have a regular conversation with other people across the globe. That is, if they are willing to keep up with the conversation. On the other hand, when we're talking about "pain" as in physical pain, then I don't think myLot can relieve it. But emotional pain or stress can be cured through simple conversations, as what most psychiatrists would agree upon.

Hello Tina, while I have been thoroughly relaxed these past few days, I can easily see how myLot can serve as your pain reliever. This is because it can function not only as a diary where you can pour out your feelings - but it can also "talk back to you" :P The opinions of fellow myLotters can improve your disposition tenfold :) Have a wonderful weekend too, and happy myLotting!

I agree. I was having a rotten day today and then I got on here and just listening and responding to topics have totally freed my mind of all those yucky feeling I was having.
