I am so Depressed right now...

I can't believe this had happened to me. I just woke up around 10 in the morning to have my usual breakfast and buy some tea because my mom had a sort throat today, it's been raining here, probably i hope she might not get cold. But that's not the reason i made this discussion. since almost every here can rant,vent, or express in disbelief, might as well do the same. I opened up mylot this morning, usually to check the comments that I've been receiving from the users that I had responded to. until i got this comment and then Bang!*shot in the heart, and fell down...slowly* I don't wanna go to the details because it's against mylot discussion..to talk to a specific user. but this is the worst part, it's not a troll, It's one of us here..It's hard to believe that after all this time, I didn't realize I wasn't welcome. I respected that person, and when i added to my friends-list i thought it was A-ok back to normal. but after i made that remark in that users topic..I was like...WHAT?!! frankly I've been told to stay out of the persons thread..fine, il do it, except when His discussions are interesting though. Oh, well. that's life..I just got hit pretty bad....

I am sorry you have been upset.I am not familiar with the discussion you are referring to but I have seen similar reactions many times since I’ve been here. I know it is hurtful and staying away may be the best solution. See how you feel in a while; you may be able to talk out your differences and if you don’t; the way I see it some people you are better off without sometimes.

hi letranknight25 that was really very nasty of that mylotter. the nerve to tell you to stay out of his thread. thats another mylotter who thinks she can tell mylotters who she wants to respond to her discussions and who she doesnt.I dont think that can be enforced unless of course someone was insulting or flaming the person who made the discussion. thats so arrogant and so unkind,because we are all free on mylot to respond to any discussion we wish to respond to.

Hello, Hatley what's up, this mylotter? is she some one we know?? too bad, for those who chooses their responders, because in time they won't have real people responding to them. it's hard though, but yeah this is Earth and people like this comes out sometimes.....

Awe...dont be sad....I know how you feel though... When I first started hanging out in here a couple months back I had only a few friends on my list and didnt really know what to do here...one of the people was actually a friend from another social site that also happened to be on here and we talked a lot on the other site so i figured i would start by commenting on her discussions....I figured that would probably help her out as well as myself so...anyway every time i would comment in one of her discussions she would reply telling me i should start my own discussions...lol...I thought she meant that I wopuld make more by doing that instead of just commenting hers...thought she was trying to help me...then after a couple weeks I commented on one of her discussions that I was going to take her advice and start my own discussion...she wrote back and said sorry she must have been in a bad mood the day she said that to me...lol...in other words apparently I was annoying her all along.... my feelings were hurt too...but what can you do??

What will I do? I won't do nothing. even if the apologizes, which is unlikely, if that user does, i will just complete ignore him "as if he never exited".this is my ultimatum to those who wants to get a piece of me, they disappeared and even if they responded to me a hundred times, il just ignore them. i had a couple of bad moods as well, but i don't spread it here, because users are innocent.

letranknight25 don't ever allow someones expressions, opinions, suggestions, or frustrations towards you affect you to the point that you get depressed especially if you considered this person a friend. At the end of the day thats all they were just expressions, opinions, suggestions/ frustrations. You never know what that person is really going thur unless you've known them for a lifetime. You only know about people what they tell you and want you to know. Allow that negativity to roll off your back like water on a duck. Is this person part of your family? Has this person put you before themselves? Is this a person of character/ integrity? Does this person have your best interest at heart? If neither of these questions apply or more than one the answer is NO. Then it doesn't matter what they think. Get on with your life and don't waste anymore of your time trying to figure out why they did this too you cause you can't please everyone. NO WORRIES BE HAPPY

Don´t worry, people often say things without thinking and then wish they would not have said it. I try to think that a person that is unfriendly, must feel bad for some reason and sometimes it can have to do with physical conditions. One thing could be that he has a wrong diet and his brain is not getting the right fats that it needs - that could cause all sorts of disturbed behavior such as ADHD, DAMP and even schizofrenia (don´t know how to spell it right) Just think that this guy might have eaten some fried food with heated fats and that is what caused his thinking to go wrong. I have experienced that myself when I din´t know about this - I used to be depressed and irritated. It is a big difference now when I eat cold pressed fish oil with Omega3 and other cold pressed vegetable fats. Our brain consists of about 60% fats and the fats need to be good so that our right personality will be visible.

I hope you come over it - we cannot change others, the only way is to avoid them and keep to kind gentle persons - I am sure there are lots of them here - we just need to find them. But we have to choose our company to avoid getting hurt..

The guy had some real really bad issues with the other of his former Mylot-friends that betrayed him (can't tell) that i found out recently in one of his responses. and now, he thinks am one of them, so mad with one of my responses that he finally made his last agitating comment on me. the worst part is that even though he knew before, for him I was or am a Bad Impression or evil troll hiding along with other people here. i didn't expect this to one of my pinoy mylot friends. am starting over after being suspended/old account deleted from April to July..how I wish he could have just put that in his discussion and warned every body about that incident that might happen to others...miss the guy having in my friends-list.He was one of the FIRST friends i added in my first account..sadly, it has come to this. so sudden, the site's been infiltrated with sarcastic, insensitive and angry people..i know some people vent but not the way they respond..am tired of this already *walking a way from the PC again*

I am sorry to hear that you have allowed some idiot to affect you - do not allow them to have that much power.. You have not been a myLotter long enough to just let any insults roll off your back. I have been here long enough (3 years) and been hurt (only in the beginning) or insulted (many, many, times) so that I either quit myLot (no way!)or depending on my mood I can use them as a way to get rid on my bad mood by going full steam ahead and defending myself (sometimes I am itching for a good brawl) or if I am in a nice mellow mood I just ignore them.

I think i got in the middle of that discussion... and i don't understand what happened... i was having fun with the arguments... and really laughed out loud when a joke about dandruff flying around was mentioned... then hurtful words were said... That is the main reason why i hate responding to discussions about politics or any controversial issues... people tend to be too emotional... well, just don't take it personally... and just try to stay away from that member for as long as you can... lest you be accused of being a stalker or troll again...

ohhhhhh, I don't even wanna start on that. If every one in his party acts like him there's no way am voting for any of their candidates..No, this has gone personal, i would have understand if he thinks am dumb enough to respond but accusing of such is totally out of the QUESTION!..

Like i said in that discussion... we do this for fun... and if that is no longer the case... then i think it is time that we leave this place for good...

Hello LetranKnight25, Pity you! Personally, I never get too hurtful response from other mylotters. I am not that lucky, it is just that I try not to involve in any discussions that can cause so much pain to me later *smiles* Well, each of us has the right to voice out our opinion here and we can't agree with all - that's the fact. I hope it won't destroy your beautiful day today and just forget about it. It happened to you before, right? Just let it be...maybe you should take a time off from mylot and restart afresh *smiles*

LetranKnight25, Just let it go and not let this member get into you. Most of all, it is just not worth get yourself worked up and raising your blood pressure unnecessary over 1 individual's senselessness. We do not have to lower ourselves to their level and for whatever reasons taint our reputations.

Letran Gosh I don't know where to begin and this is my first post today. It's breakfast for me too and this is yet another post where a friend, no, two friends, are involved in an upset. I saw what was said and of course I have no idea if there is anything else before what I read but I want to say this based on the situation I see, not other things. We are all gifted with speech and here we type out our thoughts. You said your piece and that was the reaction you got. Please leave it at that my friend, please! Maybe both of you said a little more than you should have done because at the times that you said it you each had something else bothering you. But words written here are not like the spoken word, they remain. Carry on just as you have said that you will as you have left an option. You can respond anywhere, just as we all can, and the other person can ignore your posts, just as we all can ignore every post. Here we have that choice Respect each other please because that is the thing which appears tobe lacking here of late - respect. Please don't start another battle, my friend. You are both my friends here and I am saddened to read of this upset. Let time heal whatever has caused it. Outsiders cannot know what each user has going through the back of their minds when they read a comment and how they are going to feel when they read what we say. Maybe if you had responded with different words and the person reading had read it on a different day, things would have been different. Right now things are like they are, broken. Give time a chance to put things right please my friend. Please...

I can understand your wrath... but is it worth it to come online and instead of relaxing you get wound up? You can't forget I know but you can live with it and hope that it settles. Nothing good will come out of it if you let it eat at you inside. I don't want to see you eaten up like this You have, in my opinion, two choices: to live with the situation and hope it sorts itself out or to make it worse...

Woah, you mustve cared a lot for that user or that topic for it to have this kind of effect on you. Or I think it's more that you care more to be part of the myLot community and one user not welcoming you might possibly feel that all the rest reflect that user's feelings. Well, anyway, dont worry, that may only be an isolated incident. Then again, it mightve been a joke or a prank or something. Right you are when you said, that's just life. So move on.^_^ There are thousands and thousands of threads and people on here to be friends with and interact. Have fun!

You used that emoticon to open your comment again. Well, do choose another one and maybe avoid using that () from now on. Other people may also misunderstand your reasons for using that. You decided to ignore him. Well, I think that could work since you only have an online friendship but that wont solve your argument. Anyway, goodluck.

I'm sorry you are having problems, Letran, I am too, in my OWN discussions even! I didn't see what happened to you, but I know you are a nice person. I can't tell you to ignore that person because if you are beg attacked you should be able to defend yourself, unless you are in my situation where IF you defend yourself they troll you even harder. I'm getting pretty sick of it, after 4 years here I am about ready to say "the hell with it" and not bother with mylot at all anymore. I earned enough to make payout, so I will stick around at least until I get paid, but after that I don't know if it is worth the aggravation to be here anymore. I hope you feel better soon and that your antagonizer soon gets bored of harassing you.

No, the person who is slandering me is like a pitbull with a steak, not letting go at all. So I can avoid MY OWN discussions and allow people to think this person's nasty allegations about me are true or try to defend myself and get attacked even worse. Either way I lose. MyLot used to be a special place for me, a place whee I could happily talk with interesting people and escape my own troubles for a while. It isn't that for me anymore. After 4 years I think I have finally reached the limit of attacks I can tolerate. This is NOT fun anymore nor is it friendly. I am very isolated where I live and mylot helped ease that pain, but not anymore, now it just makes my pain unbearable. I can't take it anymore.

Well, you are not specific enough about what is it that depressed you, trying to generate discussion through mistery. If you want specific advice you're going to have to be more specific about what happened. And if an internet comment affects you this much, that's just pityful, there are people going through major depressions for a lot of worse things so I think it's unfair to use depression as lightly as you seem to in here.
