We're both DeafBlind but don't be literally blind and mute to Jiro's sage wisdom and don't you dare say it's censorship because we are not equipped to handle other emotionally imbalanced members.

i will say whatever i wish to say and don't need to ask your permission, mrs bucket. :cool2:

furthermore, i will call it censorship because that's exactly what it is.
 
You want us to suppress our emotions to appease your self-entitlement issues and this is not going to happen, Hear Again.

The world does not revolve around you.
 
furthermore mrs bucket, do not tell me how to interpret another's post. i'm more than capable of deciding that for myself, thank you very much.

i never said it did.

furthermore, i do not wish for other ad'ers to "appease" me. if you believe that to be true, then i'm afraid you are sadly mistaken.

the internet is not fantasy. while it is true that you can't believe everything you read on the internet, that doesn't mean someone can't receive support and encouragment from others who understand what they are going through. i've made many friends here on ad who know what it is like to have mental illness and to me, that is real.

I understand what you are saying, but it is YOUR belief of this interent as a real one. That's great you have made friends here on AD who knows how you have been get through it. That's wonderful yes..

but i came on AD is for my own fun therefore it is fantasy. again you and i have different views on AD. I only made a statement that most threads are ALMOST all of "mental health issues" in many different thread while PTSD and abuse thread is ALREADY in there, according to OP's statement in her own thread.

This is where you are wrong. The surge of bipolar/PTSD/abuse threads speaks for itself and specifically this thread speaks for itself.

I don't need to say anymore considering how you post rapidly again and again after yourself.

It would seem that your apology was moot and not authentic.

you're more than welcome to accept my apology or not. it makes no difference to me.

if i wish to post rapidly, then i will do so. again, i do not need to ask your permission.

...and if anyone thinks i'm rapid cycling (note: if you do not wish to read those words, put me on ignore), i'm not. i'm perfectly level and am simply responding to posts as i see fit.

Agreed.
yes it is not going to happen, it applies to everyone's that i won't allow them to.

what's wrong with that? the bipolar/ptsd/abuse threads were posted under the health forum, no?
 
Hear Again said:
funny how mrs bucket doesn't mind making jokes about those of us who wish to discuss mental health topics. nice.

that's what other forum is for. Perhaps many of us do not have PTSD or other mental illness but we do have loved one who does. It is emotionally-draining enough.

if it's emotionally draining, then don't read threads as they apply to ptsd or bipolar.

i'm beginning to see a double-standard here. some ad'ers expect me not to respond or read posts that trigger my rapid cycling yet at the same time they expect the rest of us not to post threads about ptsd or bipolar. what's wrong with that picture?

exaclty, mrs bucket makes jokes in the right thread, not in the serious thread.
 
Hear Again said:
i'm sorry, but i thought deaf people were affected by mental illness, no?

since that is the case, what's the problem with people offering support? telling us not to discuss mental illness is an unfair form of censorship.

yes support is good in here but it's specifically related to deaf. and no there's no censoring the discussion of mental illness but it has been a dominant trend of AD. It has taken life of its own on all over threads :-o

I wanted to lay out some few things in this thread.

I've noticed that there are a lot of threads that are often hijacked with mental disorder issues.There are a lot of threads that are non-health related being hijacked with comments regarding of mental disorder discussions. This really need to be stopped because it loses the purpose of a certain thread when other members would like to be able to discuss a specific topic rather than letting the thread go astray with mental disroder issues or rather, letting it be overlapped by a conversation that leads to elsewhere. It's been given the repeatable cycle. It's like asking for a broken record to be played over and over again.

This is not in a way to say that I'm insensitive or being mean about it. I'm not saying that you shouldn't be doing this or that. This is to only to make it clear that if any one of you want to discuss about a certain issue - It'd be better to create another thread or go to a correct thread that is health related to a mental disorder topic that you wish to discuss. Please at least give some respect to other threads and discuss about the original issue. At least, stick to to the original thread instead of discussing a whole different issue on a thread that is not even related to the original post.

I think it would also be fair enough for other threads to have a breather and to discuss about this certain topic for what thread it has to offer.

Also, I've noticed a thing after another - When a thread goes astray with mental disorder issues, I often see that there is almost NO respect at all for going off topic and it continues to be off topic. I'm not talking about one or two posts that goes off topic. It's fine to be off topic once in a while but when it is constantly off topic - that is where it needs to be changed.

If you guys have any feedback or wish to discuss about this issue, Please do so and of course, with respect as well. :)

Sweetheart, the PTSD/bipolar and abuse threads are taking over the farkin' forum!!

Where's the other threads?! Oh yes, you guys are taking it over by making new threads talking about mental health & driving members away because we feel so awkward & uncomfortable!

You have the gall to accuse us of double-standards when you do the same thing with other members.

Now you see what the problem is? You enable yourself when you shouldn't.
