This thread is locked indefinitely. TH doesn't really need an excuse to create more negativity than already exists on the site. Goodbye!
┗━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛


This is a thread where you can post anything from minor complaints to long-winded rants about whatever may be bothering you. Since things can get quite heated in these types of boards, there are a few minor rules to help keep things civil:
 
Rules:
▸ If you feel you are posting anything about a very sensitive topic such as self harm or assault, please black it out using the spoiler feature (lock symbol in post editor). You may also use this feature if you are posting something that makes you feel uncomfortable.

NOTE: if you choose to black out your text instead of using the spoiler feature, please be sure to set your font color and the background color to be the same color - otherwise, users will still be able to read it on certain themes. You can see a more detailed explanation in Aska-ray's thread here. Example: black text with black background

This is not an appropriate place to discuss other users within the Toyhou.se community (and by extension, the adopts community as pertains to sister sites: DA & FA) - this includes namedropping, hinting, and vague posting. Do not start fights with each other; this will result in warnings or strikes for the involved posters.
▸ Please refrain from using the Vent board to vague post or complain about users or posts within the Complaints board. This directly breaks rule #2 of the thread, and is not allowed.
▸ Please avoid the usage of hate speech.
If you have an issue with a post or believe a rule is being broken, do NOT post publicly. PM this account for moderator assistance.
 
Posts about politics, religion, etc. are allowed, but please be aware these are sensitive topics and may invite people to respond and start a discussion you may not want to be part of. If things get particularly heated the mod may drop in and ask you to take it to PMs. 
 
If you have a concern about something a user has posted, please contact this account via PM (do not ping publicly with your issue) to let the moderator know. The account will be checked multiple times a day.
 
This thread will operate on a 3 strike system. Any time a user breaks a rule of the thread, they will be notified via PM and have the offense explained to them. 
 
The users will begin to receive strikes with each offense, with the final third strike resulting in a temporary or permanent block from the thread depending on the severity of the situation. All of this will be discussed with the user via PM so they have a full understanding of the issue.
 
Are you having a tough time? Are you struggling with depression, eating disorders, anxiety, self harm, suicidal thoughts, or just need someone to talk to? Please make use of these resources:

I'm tired of bottling up.  But at the same time, it certainly saves me a lot of heartache.


I don't even know what I'm doing anymore.

I feel like I fail at everything. I wanted to have children by 28...I'm 31 and have been trying with no luck.

I wanted to be a veterinarian, but I wasn't smart enough to pass the classes I needed. What makes it worse is that I AM smart. I took Calculus in high school...I'm just not smart enough to reach my goal.

I wanted to be married. I no longer think marriage is an institution I ever want to partake in, but a partner would be nice to have. I can't even do that, though, because I always end up feeling depressed and trapped in my relationships.

Just now I tried to acquire something with great sentimental value to me and came up short. Again. I tried so hard for weeks, but every try was met with a dead end.

I just cant do anything that really matters to me. I'm just not good enough, not smart enough, not loving enough. Not enough. That's me.

              Am I allowed to say how I absolutely DESPISE the recent change to hide n/a in forums? Like I understand the reason because I saw the suggestion thread but there should be an option for toggling it on/off. Now it wastes so much time to check out art games only to find I'm unable to participate because I can't see that the 'true' last poster is one of the bunch of mass-claimers that I block. While I get the reason of its implementation, not everybody is uncomfortable by seeing n/a, for some it serves as a sign to notify whether they should bother looking at the thread's last reply or not.

honestly i guess i just feel really alone? it's hard to trust anyone anymore, and i just don't feel a genuine connection to my friends like i used to. i can't get close to anyone without getting hurt and it sucks. i miss being able to trust the people i love.

i fuckin hate alcohol babey! i 4got how much i hate it :^(

All I said was that I hope it doesn't get too hot outside because I end up not feeling like doing anything, and you find that concerning because you think I was born in a country that's often hot? Then I correct you that I was born in this country and you try to defend what you said with "genes/heritage" lol

It'd be great if people could stop making assumptions based on skin colour but that's not happening (/ _ ; ) like does that automatically make me a terrorist too now? One time we were doing a thing in class about listing physical traits of the person you were paired with and someone decided I was Indian even though I'm not //

i wish i had the courage to do a lot of things, but everyday i just get more nervous at even smaller stuff, it's getting the same for a good while now

i only had myself to support me on this, and its getting very complicated at this point

my parents dont care about whats really happening, all the fault goes to me, im always the only one making mistakes here

i try to change but they seem stuck to when i was like 12

i dont even know what i am anymore, the only things i hear from them are hurtful

and i cant even defend myself

but i already did everything i could, they just dont care about it, im always wrong no matter what i say, i have no voice in here

im fucking alone in all of this, i dont even have the courage to talk to anybody about this, i always worry to hurt others with myself, i just dont want to be a bother to anybody, but not even trying to avoid that i always end up bad

its always me, the problem is always me, im always doing everything wrong

and when i try to know what i have to improve, it just gets worse, im alone in all of this, im fucking alone
