i have been suffering with anxiety and panic attacks for over 25 years, i have been to shrinks,therapists. i found this site 3 or 4 days ago and i finally found hope and promise. i have found people out there just like me. they had the same fears, anxiety and panic attacks. i finally realized i was not alone. i had helped people on this chat line cope with panic attacks and made them laugh. they forgot about there anxieties for a little while and the panic attack passed.
one night i was feeling vulnerable and i screamed out in caps that i was having a panic attack etc. it was two line in caps. i was asked not to use caps in the chat room and i stopped immediatly.
approx. 10 minutes later i asked a general question regarding caps usage in chat room. and everyone in the room was chatting about this, there was no arguing no fights it was a nice chat. for ten minutes people forgot about their problems. than we were asked by anna to change the subject. i have read the rules that when a room gets roudy or fighting happens that the subject should be changed. i agree with that 100%. but we were not fighting or arguing. is this room here to help people??! or should we sit in the dark rooms and cry? i back this room and its creators 100% but as a sufferer i find that getting your minds off your anxieties helps, even if its 10 minutes.
i do not own this web site or pretend to, the creators of this site wont even listen to my side of the story and labeled me as "trouble".
im trouble because i care and want people to feel better, it actually makes me feel better helping others.
are these ops on a power trip are they here to really help others or just talk about
anxiety, misery and fears?
if you (site ops) really cared about peoples feelings and well being you would not have banned me especially when i was at a very low point.
i apologize to those if i offended you, my intentions were all good.
i did not curse or cause abbrubtions. i am just like you vulnerable scared and fed up with anxieties and panic attacks. i am not a child i am a 43 yr old male who find comforts in talking with others with problems like myself.
everyday is a battle and all of you can agree with that, this chat room should not be used a game of who stays and who gos, there are alot of good people that are being kicked off for the sillest reasons.
thank you for your time and i wish everyone all the best. one day at a time.
