I honestly don't really know if this should go in this vent room, or the other one. Since, all in all, I think it's a positive thing, I guess I'll post it here.
Today, I just thought about what I've been doing, and where do I go from here, all those sorts of things. I know quite a few people on here have had some experiences with depression and the like, so I don't really want to awaken bad feelings or anything. I guess I should note here that I've been having those problems of my own, and until now, I was at a complete loss.
I realized one thing, though : even if it was a negative experience, and a painful one, my problems, in a way, have helped me. Because I know that if I've survived through them, other people can as well. So today, I decided I would try and help other people that have those sorts of difficulties. My personal philosophy has always been that it's easier to interact with someone you feel familiar with, so the fact that I've had these issues might actually be useful to other people.
I guess I'm just posting this as a semi-resolution for 2018, as well as a message of friendship to all those here who have suffered because of this. I can't really convince anyone that what they're thinking is wrong, so I guess I can only say that I understand too.
