    Depression is a terrible thing, mental illness can affect people in so many different ways.

    People who suffer from depression can feel like they don’t want to get out of bed and face the world.

    They may turn to alcohol or drugs to get them through the dark time which can prove to be a vicious cycle because both can be a depressant taking them down even further.

    Baring all that in mind, most people will experience depression and mental illness at some point in their lives.  Some people will even get suicidal and act in ways which will shock surprise and annoy others.

    They may show signs of the over dramatics, get emotional, get angry, be self obsessed, be selfish, be self absorbed and be ‘up their own backsides’ and generally pi** everyone off but how many do you believe tell people that they have cancer and pretend to be their sister and say they have died?

    Is it ever ok to lie about having cancer just to get attention?

    Is it ever ok to pretend you have died just to see how many people will mourn you and be upset?

    This coming from a professional expert view, opinion? Or is this post to keep bringing up the past in which person admitted done wrong, had some issues, confessed, and you got to start it all OVER again…

    For what ever reason at that time did..over..move on….

    No, it’s not ok.

    Which is precisely why I admitted what I’d done.

    It was thoughtless, stupid, sad and wrong.

    I have struggled for years Dangermousey, years. A lifetime of low self esteem, insecurity and being bullied.

    It took all this. The lies, the hurt, the anger, loss..

    Yes. I lied.

    Yes. It was wrong.

    Some people make mistakes.

    You wanna keep dragging up the past? Go ahead.

    I’ve made my apologies, learnt from my mistakes, moved on.

    Nem, If they judge you by your past  don’t be surprised when they become part of it. They are like plungers, they keep bringing up the same old shit :) shows you how sad their own existance must be . Dont regret your past Nem, just regret the time you wasted with the wrong people. It doesn’t matter who you used to be. All that matters is who you have become. Walk your own path in life Nems you don’t need anyones approval in this world or from cyber saddos!! Stop  apologising its not you who has the problem. Walk away from these sad shit plungers :)

    Thanks Sophia :)

    Tbf, most people (at least the people whose opinion I actually care about) have been great. There have been one or two posters that have their reasons for not forgiving what I’ve done and to their credit they’ve been decent about it.

    One or two, like Sarah and badder are absolutely loving this. They see it as a chance to gloat. Let them!

    I had cancer. It didn’t hurt, ( Well not much) It was the best time of my life!  I got taken out to lunch a lot ! It made me appreciate the birds singing in the trees and our beautiful country , it made me not stress about things I have no control over, it made me not scared of anyone or anything! It made me be more logical about life, It made me be happy and truely realise who is important in my life and who isn’t, it made me a much better person. I’m glad I had it !

    Rose..thank you for sharing. As you graciously pointed out “Cancer” perhaps for some a deadly disease, recent discovery and research has helped so many!. BUT so very true..those who embrace it and move on not wallowing. Each have own method to deal with things which impact life. As in death we are taught 5 stages..First anger, denial, regret..so forth. I am glad you are well, share your thought in which could happen any time to any one of us.

    I have said this before in the rooms, my neighbor of 25 years, best friend, sister so important and considered my family 6 years ago diagnosed with Sarcoma. Years of treatment..no longer can do any treatments. She goes in stages. Every six months find a big tumor growth some where in body and they cut it out again. This now on third year almost. She lost her big management job, lost loads of money and insurance companies have denied her. She pays each company fee dollars a month. She not care. She smiles every day, beautiful, slim..smart. she does many things. As her time can be taken any moment she lives each day to the best..we get Dunkin coffee every morning when I am off. If I cry..she there. If need a friend..never ever abandons what ever time. As I am for her. She too says..life too short, never know..live it to the fullest. Tomorrow another day..

    God bless Rose..

    Maybe, the person/s doing this just want their trolls to leave them alone, ( a different slant i know). some ppl cope, some really well, but some have been through enough in their lives to say  “enough”. doubt they do it for attention, more for the hope they will be left alone for a change.

    we all have our faults, some take their’s out on others, some don’t feel the need
