How.... Lady Delirium.... uughhhhhh:
well i mean, usually i wouldn't care..but its just a little harsh..
put yourself in a similar position, y'know?
nope wouldnt happen i know better ways to control myself.. and if i am thirsty i drink water.
Lady D, want some advice on your father? Stop being a half-wit and DON'T DRINK BLEACH. So your father is a moron, get over it. Aren't you old enough to get a job? Move out then. My relationship with my Dad is fine-and-dandy either, but you don't see ME coming here and saying, 'onmgz i kill myselfz HELP PLZ' I only echo Drysart's statements on shit like this. I guarentee you if I had been here when Drysart and Piper were posting, I would have only been helping. In fact, I'm sad I didn't think of something like that for your title first.
Grow a spine and move on.
And also, a change of rules is due sooner or later.
quote:Something like that.
Rules:
Posting that you're leaving the EverCrest Forums because things aren't the way you want them to be, or life sucks and you wanted to kill yourself in your infinite wisdom, will result in a ban, since you obviously don't need to use your account again. This is to stop pathetic grandstanding and manipulation by attention whores.
And, Lady D, if you think Drys and Piper are being kinda harsh, just think what people would have said if you had died from this. We all know the sick jokes would have started before the day was out.
I suggest you get a phone book, and start looking up some numbers of someone that can help you. Some churches and youth help places have hotlines you can call when you need someone to talk to.
Just write the numbers down, even if you don't really want to call and talk to them right now. When you next feel the urge to do something bad like this, call them instead.
Your father will thank you for it.
THUS
Anything else = attention whoring
...logic train (ZOOOOOM)

Yeah, I'd have to agree that, unless someone is so supremely stupid that they can't live anyway, it's impossible to screw up a suicide if you're serious.
Eh, I know someone that did a good job of trying, but someone walked in at just the right time to save them. It's blind, dumb luck that she lived to get the help she needed.
That having been said, if she had asked for the help in the first place...

Well, I'm sure that's an extreme exception.
Either way, she's damn lucky. But I'm willing to bet it was A not B, but since she didn't tell us specifically, we should reserve judgement until she says so. If she's looking for support, and a good number of her friends gather here, and she did go the way of choice A, I'm down wid dat. Attention whoring would be likely choice B, but still, it's not as if she whined to us about how depressed she was before she did it, she's just trying to recover.
Now for my Chalesm-like attempt to patch things up. Drys and Pips, I know both of you abhor attention whoring, and claiming you're going to kill yourself, but this appears to be after the fact, not really looking for attention at all. In fact, she may have very well been trying to find Bane to get his help and let him know of the situation. If someone helps her, don't jump down their throat, or her own for that matter. A simple review of the rules, or locking the thread will work, so calm down y'hear? Oh yeah, remove the title as well, I don't think any of us needs that reminder of these traumatic events. While it's funny to some, she'll likely suffer until it's gone. Some jokes get old real fast.
Lyinar, you're right to stand by Lady D, but engaging in a prolonged flame war to defend her is not the best thing you could do at this time. I'd recommend talking to her via PM's if she still needs support.
Others: Lay off Lyinar, if she wants to help someone, let her, but you don't need to criticize her for being militant about it. Also, if Lady D gets reprimanded once for something, it doesn't need to have the knife twisted by everyone adding their own two bits. Also, I think I need to lay claim to the Braveheart pic, I don't approve of my ancestor being used in that fashion, even portrayed by Mel Gibson
For one final comment, STOP THE FLAMESIf worst comes to worst, I want either Drys or one of the mods to lock this thread, things are getting out of hand and neither party needs any more aggravation. For a fun diversion, check out my new thread, NOW. We need some more positive stuff around here. I am not going to get involved in another flame war.

(PS Lady D, if you need any extra help, my PM box is open. Though I've never gotten close to killing myself, I have been in desperate straits before, and I can try to help you get out of yours)
Go away and quit giving orders.

First one's free.
It was rather far down on the page, however, about to slip into oblivion. That's why I said "rezzed" rather than "bumped."
It's his call, of course, but it involves taking the heat, as well as making the statement.

I'll be honest. If someone is in emotional trouble like Lady D was in this situation, or anyone else for that matter. I sit down, ask them what's wrong, to explain their posistion, and I talk with them one on one. I don't put down what they did...I sometimes suggest that they probably reacted wrongly, but I'm very supportive of people.
I respect the fact that some of you don't like people saying that they will kill themselves. Sure, if they want to, why don't they just do it and not say a word on the board? My personal opinion is that these people are trying to find some help in their lives, and they come online here for advice or whatever because they can't find their close friends at home.
I do the same thing...I always ask my friends for advice in some things.
I'm not going to say what you guys are saying is wrong, and I'm not going to order you around.
But I'm just Saying that you might want to sit and think before you write out these flames in these cases. I'm never mad at anyone until they directly piss me off.
I'm always here for my friends and if anyone needs to talk, I'm here for anyone.

Good is the logic, hmmm.
Ah, but there is help for mental problems as well.
And they cannot be found on a messageboard.
