Yeah, but I chose the good kind of social work. The kind where you hardly deal with people's bullshit problems. eheh ehehehe

perhaps that is where i went wrong.... i admire you for finding something social work-wise that doesn't include desperately crying losers that have nothing better to do than waste your time

pfffffffffffffff, I went to school just now but I didn't know in what room I needed to be. I took so many elevators and stairs that I didn't even know on what floor I was. And then I walked right past the right classroom!! I recognised this one chick who's in my class who I've only seen 3 times! If I hadn't spotted her I would've gone home.

Hooray! So what we've established so far is that the people who come here a lot do so because they like it. A revelation of earth-shattering proportions, I'm sure you'll agree. It would be nice to see some "but..."s in there though from the people who come along and then go away again, just to see what, if anything, we're doing wrong. Any and all constructive criticism is welcome, and if you don't feel like posting it here, feel free to PM me or J.Pizzle where we'll talk behind your back for ages see what can be done It's all for The Greater Good....

It would be nice to see some "but..."s in there though from the people who come along and then go away again, just to see what, if anything, we're doing wrong. Agreed... here's my thoughts: i have times that i'm around and i feel like posting initially, but then i sort of feel put off. I know one reason i sometimes find it hard to post is when there isn't much communication going on, and when people are just dropping their sentences on a thread as if there is nothing worth replying to. You know what i mean? There's people sharing stuff that apparently they feel are interesting enough to write for others to read, but then it isn't met with any replies. Sometimes this goes on for pages - all these people talking and nobody seeming to actually listen. I know why sometimes that gets to me. It only gets to me when i am feeling low about myself, when i feel invisible and i'm afraid that if i post something and nobody will acknowledge it, it will make me feel absolutely shite and i will go off on one of my insecure moods where i feel i am not wanted anywhere and people would reply if only i was worth something. Does that make sense? Then i feel i should start replying to people because after all, it is what i am missing so i should at least reply myself, but sometimes i feel so insecure that i am convinced people would hate my replies because really, they don't want me here and it would piss them off to see me around.

Yeah I felt that way too when I was just talking to the Internet spyrobots.. But then I thought of myself as a sort of Onewhiskey hostess. I try to strike up a conversation with someone if I see someone who I know log in. Oh and the reason why my postcount is so ridiculous is because I do try to keep conversations going. But you're doing a great job too Lungsey, rock on!

It's so good to be back on the board! I've had too many good times with y'all over the last 4 (+/-) years to stay away.
Sweet thread, Lungsey... You're a darlin'.

indeed. Though i'm not strictly a social worker. Well, i am but i'm not. Can you say more about what you mean? I'm currently pursuing my Master's in Social Work and I love it. This career track brings together so many disparate elements of what's gone into my life and shaped me as a person. I'm feeling a bit burned out at the moment though because this first year has been so intense. This program is like psychological / spiritual boot camp and it's left me questioning a lot of things about who I am and what life is about, etc. Tearing everything down until you wonder what's left. But I think any sort of social work probably does that, because you're coming into contact with so much intense and painful stuff. Would the other social workers here, or those in similar / related fields, say the same thing? It's interesting that there seems to be a small contingent of folks here drawn to this line of work. The verbal beatdowns I've gotten here haven't been entirely unexpected, as I tend to provoke that reaction in others often online, but that don't make it easy to get torn into. Perhaps I can find out what it is about me that provokes that, I'm not sure it's anything I can change, but who knows.

Hey Mockingbird, still a member of Eburg's Church of Mischief I take it? ;D Today I found out you're not 21 or something. You look so young in your arvatar! right on, hahaha Good to have you back. Your thread in the 'normal' section is amazing!! Great story, wowie. EDIT: Steph, maybe the mods can add a 'fiery biscuit' warning to your profile. Just so people know what to expect. Things should be fine after that prolly.. And yes, social work does mess you up. Ps Foz, you might've heard 'fiery biscuits' before and no I don't mean those..

i think i was the only one, feeling invisible ... I'm not in a provocation way. People say NO just for argue this or that.... i dislike things such "i love THIS and I dont understand why you dont agree with ME, so i write many words / sentences to prove why i like this" Well, i understand, i complain.
I just feel like a ghost sometimes
but sometimes not. Thanx for saying (and feeling) what i cant say.

And so Something else is shocking me Is it typical to "english language" to say "hey, motherfucker, i fuck you" instead of "i agree, i appreciate you, but i cant tell it so loud cause of my language ?" Is appearance better ? Really, i wonder !!! !!! Of course, I KNOW my post will stay as usual invisible
