I have not been on this forum long, and i am going through a really harsh time at the moment! so some of my responses might seem cryptic and confusing, i wholeheartedly apologize, its just been a very tough time, sometimes it affects me in that way, sometimes i just feel ignored, hopefully there will be some understanding! 

  • Hi, it looks like a hard time for you. I'm experiencing hard time too, maybe different than yours. I've never noticed anything offensive from your posts. I also feel ignored sometimes or feel like I don't fit here too, similarly to the "big world", but I try to not overthink that. Anyway I exist here 1,5 year already and have some breaks. I like this place.

  • I am not sure which old post you are referring to.

    I haven't noticed any issue with what you have posted.

    Not everything that gets posted will get a response. It depends on whether someone else has something to add.

    • It is easiest to get responses if you start a new topic. For example with a post that has an observation and a question. If you pick something that most people are likely to have a view  about you are more likely to get responses and start a discussion.

    I would say: quite a difference between good days and not-so-good days.

    Good days - mean I am curious and busy about something and teaching myself something new e.g.: reading, researching somewhere to visit occasionally, watching a programme or video, listen to music, take a photo, or something with a creative / practical skill - those sorts of things.

    Although I have used all types of computers / phones since an early adopter of tech - I have never acquired the passion for digital games.

    Not-so-good days, or burnout - then I am probably doing a pretty good impression of one of those plush, weighted, Sloth toys!  Not to worry, we can all experience days like those ones.

    Also, as you say, it depends whether I am working, or not, too.

    Social events require campaign-style pre-planning and then proper recovery time.  They just do - I don't have a magic formula for socialising - it is, in reality, an uphill setting (every event).  The experience of social settings can make it really hard to assess: benefit or reward ...versus hassle and frustration.

    ...breakfast-time beckons! (logging-off now, for the day).

    Let me see, well first of all there is the long slog of work i need to finish, which i hate, after that its mainly stay in and chill out with a whisky, brandy or something else & a nice blunt if needed to help take my woes away, to chow down and relax! watch movies, some games and if i get the chance go out, myself of course! as i am completely isolated, that's why its rare! it can be a wretched existence, but there you go, that's it in a nutshell! what about you ? 

  • I am sorry you are having a difficult time. 

    It can take a while to settle into a new group. 

    That said, I hadn't noticed an issue with things you write.

    Many of us (here) face a range of struggles in life - but it is maybe good to notice: that many of us are older adults (demonstrating that we can find our way through tough times and sometimes celebrate things which bring us joy).

    On a good day, what is an example of something you like to do?
