I have so much to say, but I don’t feel safe doing it.
I am sad at this, because I don’t know any of you, and I still can’t bring myself to do it.
We’ll still be here when you are ready.
Sorry for your troubles, WeWereInfinite, but maybe you’d like to share something about what’s going on? Otherwise there’s not much point in starting a thread about it. 
Punctuation really isn’t an adequate thread title, so I used the beginning of your post as a title to give people some vague idea of what this is about.
Go ahead and spill it, the squid are surprisingly gentle.
Seriously though, there are good people here that may be able to help and lend perspective and support, let it out when you are ready.
Don’t be shy - go ahead and spill it. We talk about everything else under the sun here, so why not just go for it?
Besides, now I’m curious.
Don’t be afraid. There are a lot of good people here. The rest are pretty easy to ignore.
Give us a general notion of what you want to talk about, and maybe someone can then pull up some previous threads on that topic. It might help you get comfortable discussing the subject if you see how others have done so.
There are a lot of bad people here too, in case it’s something bad you’re feeling guilty about. Hey, nobody’s perfect.
You may not get the response that you think you will get. It is a chancy thing, whether members of the board get a wellspring of love or support or whether they are devoured. Just make sure you can handle the latter befofe you bare your soul.
There are subjects that *I *wouldn’t mention on this board… but if I was new and didn’t particularly plan on staying around it wouldn’t matter so much.
Would you feel any safer using (for example) a free machine at the library, rather than your home computer?
It also might help to search for other threads on your topic, as then you might be able to guess how the board will react. …or maybe you’ll find an answer in an old thread.
A lot of people use this board to talk about things they can *not *speak of in real life. It’s ok, really. Just as an example, one of our longtime posters wrote:
You can read the whole thread here, and if it doesn’t scare you away from here…well, a lot of other things might. But we’re mostly ok.
Go a head and share. Why just yesterday I shared that I do not have two dead bodies in my bedroom.
Proof.

Also I just figured out how to link to single post. Wow, that and with Lost on tonight today is going to be a good day.
Edit: And I learned how to splel. Today may be the greatest day ever.
Come on, it doesn’t even have to be good. What am I going to do with the rest of my day, work?
