Just a thread about you guys :) -
January 30th 2011, 01:38 PM
This thread has been labeled as triggering, particularly on the subject of suicide, by the original poster or by a Moderator. The contents of this thread therefore might not be suitable for certain sensitive users. Please take this into consideration before continuing to read.
I just realised I've never really said what this site truly means to me, I thought I'd make this thread
![]() I remember I was 14 and never felt like I belonged anywhere, I was quiet in school and people took advantage of that and bullied me. I had a group of friends who grew out of me, they weren't the same people anymore. The bullying also got worse, I considered suicide at a few points in my life. I remember wanting to take an overdose in the school toilets, write a suicide note saying exactly who bullied me (I wanted them to suffer) Luckily it never went that far. I did make a group of friends but we all got drunk a LOT, it was like my escape from reality. I had nobody to really talk about how I was feeling. I wanted to find a teen support forum online, I found a few but all the ones I joined made me feel like more an outsider. I didn't like the staff members very much, the way the site was run and I didn't find the members very helpful. I had almost given up finding a forum which could help. One day I decided to give finding another site a try, I just google searched "teen help forum" and this popped up. I lurked about for a while to see if I had signed up before, I thought to myself if I had then the layout was probably different. I decided to make a thread. I loved the members here almost straight away everyone seemed to friendly and caring. I kept posting here.Then one day I was on the phone to my friend and signed into TH without really thinking and a PM popped up*. It was from the Talent Committee saying I should apply to be a Buddy, I actually told my friend I'd phone him back as I was so shocked The idea that a site I had been looking for for so long actually wanted me to be part of staff made me so happy. I still love you guys and hope I'll be a member here for a very long time <3333Quote:

Ah, my heart smiles. (: What a lovely story! So glad you took our "You've Been Spotted!" PM as a "YAY" moment instead of a "OMG I'M BEING FOLLOWED" moment.
(Let me just tell you how many replies I've received saying "I thought I was being followed and in trouble!" or something). Sweet.I'm happy that this site has made a positive impact on your life! Thanks for sharing. ![]() |

Ceilidh thanks for sharing your story. <3
I don't know you, but have always wanted to get to know you. You seem like a very strong person. I like seeing you around, because you are so friendly. I'm glad that TH has had a good impact on you, as I'm sure you've had a good impact on so many THers.

This is a nice thread.
![]() I feel the same way as you. I've never felt more at home than I do here. It's a wonderful community, and, I have to say, one of the best support forums I've found. It took me a while to realise how good this site was, but then I joined staff, and I've had absolutely no regrets since. I do get a little apprehensive when I get PMs too, especially with things like 'A Message From the Performance Committee'.
Nothing in the world is the way it ought to be. It's harsh, and cruel. But that's why there's us - champions. Doesn't matter where we come from, what we've done or suffered, or even if we make a difference. We live as though the world is as it should be, to show it what it can be. |

So sweet Ceilidh
"Once a little boy sent me a charming card with a little drawing on it. I loved it. I sent him a card and I drew a picture of a Wild Thing on it. I wrote, “Dear Jim: I loved your card.” Then I got a letter back from his mother and she said, “Jim loved your card so much he ate it.” That to me was one of the highest compliments I’ve ever received. He didn’t care that it was an original Maurice Sendak drawing or anything. He saw it, he loved it, he ate it." |

This is a wonderful story. Thank you so much for sharing. And I do agree, the people here on TH have been some of the nicest that I've known anywhere. Group hug!

You are beautiful. Black, white, gay, straight, bisexual.

That's great! I actually initially came here for similar reasons too so I can definitely relate
