I am sory you feel that way. But there is an old saying that you have to be a friend to have a friend. It goes that way with a lot of things. sometimes the way we feel about ourselves determines how others respond to us. If you feel invisible maybe thats why sometimes you dont get a response. I knew a guy once that really thought he was invisible because no one talked to him. but he always wore a hat pulled down over his face and was not "open" to anyone talking to h im... One day i walked up to him and said hello, how are you. He looked at me so shocked and said, You can see me??? I said of corse i can. Everyone sees you. We all care for you but you dont seem to be able to see how we care. He didnt know what to do because he was hiding behind himself.

i hope you are just having a bad day. open up to yourself and others will open up to you

I'm sorry you feel like you have been ignored on the boards. This is one thing I say to someone who says that how much have you been on trying to HELP someone here. A newbie always is greatful for the help! This board is not only a place to get help but also a place to help someone and this is where you get the MOST help. It is when helping someone you share an idea to help them this same idea can help YOU! It puts positive things in your head and keeps you thinking of something other than what you are dealing with. It is the greatest of all therapy. When you go into counseling you will only be dealing with what is going on with you but here you can deal with what is going on with someone else and it is amazing how much you will learn about yourself from them. Sometimes I have said something to someone and the lightbulb goes off in my head that these are the words I need to listen to for myself! I wish you well with your counseling. Don't give up on the board. Don't think any of us have reached where we want to be. We are still growing and learning! Many hugs and prayers!
