We’ve got obsessions
You never tell me what it is that makes you strong and what it is that makes you weak.
Does anyone realise how ****ing hard it is to do anything properly on this site at the minute?
We are struggling to keep it running at a fraction of how it should be done, and theres nothing more we can do.
Literally nothing.
So many mods are absent or ill. Over the course of yesterday and today ive closed 22 post reports, ive also worked two 12 hour shifts at work, and then these threads pop up.
Its exhausting.

I would like to appologise for my behavure last night.
Night times are always bad for me, and I was not thinking clearly, but letting my anger run away with me.
I didn't mean anything against the mods, I was simply angry and trying to find someone to blame where there wasnt anyone to blame.
Again I am really sorry.
I would say more, but it would be counterproductive with my apology, so again. I am terribly sorry.
Charlie :( You mods are amazing, don't let the minority tell you otherwise <3

Lorraine, I'm with you on how some of the threads posted recently in here are borderline inappropriate. Some people seem to cope by making jokes when things're hard. I have done sometimes at work ['valium laced cookies anyone?'] which, paradoxically, upset people with no mental health problems - have made my colleagues uncomfortable, but an online friend I know, with mental health problems found the same joke hilarious, as she also knows how fraught things are at work for me and others right now.
People are 'weird' like that, different at different times with different people and things. I'm still figuring people out!
Yeah, sorry for the ramble!
I just wanted to say that, if something upsets you on RYL, I've learned through hard experience to post report it and/or write to one of the mods rather than post a thread. Especially in the current atmosphere.
And, yes, mods do a great job. I mod a much smaller site, and that has it's share of tough times periodically, and there're much fewer members. I can't imagine how stressful it would be modding a big site like RYL. Well, actually, I can, as I used to be a teacher!
I should imagine the Mods have their own lives and can't be online all of the time. Perhaps more could be created to share the load?
Also what is upsetting to one person isn't for another. An example is someone was rude and aggressive towards me for offering practical advice rather than a hug. I just ignore them now.
I think at times we are more sensitive due to our MH and if you think a post is deliberately being personal and offensive, then report them.

Just remember NOT to take your mood out on the mods or anyone else!
Bit late to the party but I think the mods do a great job here I quite like that there are threads where people can have a laugh and make jokes, it's all part of 'getting better'. If you take life too seriously it'll drag you down so why not find humour where you can?
