Why talk about all these things, if your depressed, go get some professional help - just like Omar said.

DJKL: You say your depressed and you cant sleep..why are you on the computer posting about your problems? You dont even let your family know about your issues.

And anyway, why is there a thread posting about people lives..its strange because I dont really care... i have my own life to take care of.. - sorry to sound really mean.

Im back..:banana:

i agree why are you on your computer posting about this go tell your parents. Also you say your cant sleep go tell your parents instead of telling us. We cant do anything we can only give you advice.

To be honest I disagree with the whole 'dont post' method...

Most of the problems can be helped by talking to people with common problems or issues thats why there's such things as Support Groups; not that the forum is one but still.

Many people finding talking to people around their age more helpful than talking to someone of a more older age.

I've had my fair share of problems with domestic situations etc

However don't restrict yourselves to constant talking about the issue and bring it back to yourself - get out and do some excersise, get a hobby or a part time job to keep yourself busy.

If you seriously need to talk to someone who is 'out of the box'. I suggest a charity organisation such as ChildLine (UK for definite).

If people don't like the thread, nobody is forcing you to read it. This thread is for those who are seeking help and comfort from people here, who they might not be able to find at home.

I agree with some people posting,you shouldnt look in a public forum for help,especially here,100's of people access these boards every day,anyone can read your posts
one of the main problems is :
Pedophiles,cyberstalkers, look for loners. Many parents buy their children a computer because they don't have many real life friends. These kids are easier prey, since it's less likely they'll talk about the overtures to their friends, and they are more susceptible to someone trying to befriend them. They're lonely, and the pedophile poses as a much-needed friend.

Pedophiles look for kids who are having problems at home. They too are easier prey, since they are looking for a sympathetic ear. The pedophile tries to win the child over by further separating the child from their family, complaining about "parents" generally.
by letting people know your problems in a public forums..you are an open invitation ..your a walking talking ,victim online looking for help..and
being younger..i know you all think you are untouchable ,smart and streetwise..specially being online you all think its your domain.you think.no one can touch you...but not everyone is computer savy streetwise and smart..so you leading by example..can show others thats its wrong to post such information...but these people..get to know you..and they take months even up to a year ..of talking ,geting to know you more...as soon as you tell them"i have a problem" you have already opened the door..as a "victim of circumstance"
jus like also i hate that photograh thread.".Children should never agree to send or e-mail their photograph to someone they do not know. "The next thing you know is, you see your child's face on someone else's naked body. This can happen,"

http://www.couriermail.news.com.au/common/story_p...%255E33656,00.html

You don't really know anyone here..unless you already know them in "realtime"..school,church,family or friends...but everyone you dont know..is a threat..so dont go posting information about your problems..look to people you trust..friends,teachers...and relatives if possible..school counsellors..kids help lines(most cities have them).BUT NOT HERE....please

ya i will hush now ...I know you are about to go off at me..go ahead..but if i stop one person from doing it ..great..thats enough
