Your emotional venting thread. I'll explain.

[SilverMoon]

lol I experience a minor stressor and immediately completely shut down from stress bc im just that fuckin useless and give up too easily bc im afraid of pain im dumb

[Garrett]

so im currently taking a creative writing class in college, and i guess it never occurred to me that some people aren't comfortable sharing their writing with others??? i guess because of kidpub i have become accustomed to having other people read and (constructively) criticize my writing.
anyway, taking this class has led me to realize that i am an attention whore when it comes to sharing my writing. i always want to share it. i always want feedback and reassurance.

hey, you're problems are just a valid and important as anyone's. Other people have problems does not diminish your problems. I don't know what happened between you and your friend but it sounds like it was rough. I can't offer much help, but I promise you'll feel better about this eventually. In the meantime, if you want to talk you can always reach me here; punkyhead.re@gmail.com

oh my gosh, I'm taking a high school/college creative writing class right now and I'm in the same boat, I'm in my comfort zone and maybe 3 other people are too, but the other 6 are very embarrassed
lol I do not live on bread alone but on every comment on my writing that comes from the mouth of my teachers and classmates

[Swallowtail]

me: hey one of my friends just hung himself
my dad: you okay? yes? good. talk to faculty.
me: hey i want to shave my head
my dad: are you ok??? is this a cry for attention? a cry for help? don’t shave your head! are you alright? what’s going on? don’t shave your head!

there are moments that the words don't reach, indeed

I keep seeing your posts and wanting to send you love and sympathy but I don't know how, this awkward indirect confession's all I got. But I'm prayin for you and I hope things get better <3

exactly like i don’t care if it’s good or bad i just need to share and i need feedback!! i have around 25 people in my class. i wish it was smaller but alas, it is not. we were paired up tuesday and the i asked the guy i was with why he was taking this class and he was like “my friend dragged me into it” and i was like “ohh okay” and he threw the question back it me and i was like “bc i love it lol”
