Thank you! :D I'm not really worried about that it just doesn't make any sense. I got 10 for a couple days straight and then I got 25, like what the hell? And I felt I gave the same amount of effort both times. I don't know.
Ugh. My head is killing me.

okay, i did c:

Mah rant about depression on the NSP.
Okaysies. So... as we all know (if you don't you're about to find out) this week has been a very depressing week for KP. Everyone kind of had their moments, and we were all there to comfort them. So kudos to all of those who are helping eachother out.

Then I started thinking about it, and something dawned on me. Actually, more like a few things did.

1. Not all of us are actually that depressed: What I mean by this is attention. We all want people to care for us, right? We might be sad, but we are overexaggerating and making it a deep, horrible depression. I'm not saying that is you, but think about it. When I thought about my little spout yesterday, I think I made it a little worse than it actually was. And that's because I wanted people to care, I thought no one would. (Turns out I was wrong) But if you really aren't that sad and just want attention, please don't post things like that. It gets peeps worried about you, and then the whole KP site goes crazy.

2. KP isn't meant to be a venting site: Now this is where I lose peoples. KidPub was made for kids to post their stories, books, poems, etc. Not to fill it up with depressing things. But, sometimes we all have to vent, ya know? That is what the WB is for. If you are feeling down, post on a WB thread. Let's not fill the NSP up with depressing things that make people all depressed because you wrote them. Take me as an example. I was feeling really down, and I kind of spammed the NSP (I don't really know what to call it) but in reality, I could've gone to a thread or the AN. Technically, I would first go to the WB instead of the AN so you don't depress peoples there, but you know, sometimes you have to. So please, let's not fill the NSP with sadness and depression. I'm not saying you can't post anything, but let's just keep it down to a minumum for KP's sake.

3. Stop saying you aren't worth it: To those peoples who are depressed, stop not listening to those who are trying to help! I know what bugs me out of my system is when people keep saying, I'm not worth it. No offense, but why do you want people to help you if you aren't even listening to them? You gotta try guys. It's in you somewhere.

4. Help people out: Most of us do this, so that's good. What I am saying is if you see someone post on the WB that they're feeling down, help them! Just ask what's wrong and try to comfort them. Like I said before, most of us are already doing this so I don't think this is a big problemo.

See? We have a compromise to those who really need to vent. No no on the NSP, but the AN and WB are open. Do you guys get what I mean? KP is a writing site, not a venting site. Let's help others out, and help ourselves out by listening to those who are helping us.

What else do I have to rant about...

Errmm...

So guys, let's all make a really big effort to stay happy. For everyone's sake. Let's change our usernames to bright ones,let's post happy stories. Okaysies? We don't want newbies coming all excited onto this site, and then they realize all it is is depression.



OH! A contract.

You don't have to do this, but you can if you.. umm.. feel strongly about this. :)

I (insert main username here) promise to not vent what isn't true, and if I need to vent post it on the WB or in extreme cases the AN. I also promise to listen to those who help me, and try to lift myself up.(by changing username or maybe posting things happy) Lastly, I promise to help all those who are feeling depressed and try to make them feel better about themselves.

Thanks for listening guys! And please, no fights in comments. :)

It seems that a quarter of kidpub is oblivious to the depressive part of KP.
And I highly doubt people want to exaggerate their depression. I get frustrated and want a temporary escape all the time, but I know I'm not depressed.
Also, I have a question to...anyone. Hyperbole and a half, that blog, says that depression is unable to care about anything, but Emma Blackery says differently, like you're feeling all hopeless and stuffs. Which is it?

I've read Hyperbole and A Half, and found I could relate to the nothingness quite well, actually. There was this time when I just had...no emotion. I don't think it was depression, though...

Yeah, I loved that toy metaphor xD I've experienced a few moments when I didn't care about anything, but it was gone soon.
