[Pi.R^2]

OP, I feel like this thread is mainly about how you feel about the way you personally have been treated, so will reply as such, and I hope that's OK!

First off, there's definitely a line between tough love and rudeness, and if you feel that line has been crossed, then the best bet is to report it and then don't reply to that particular comment, or else you risk being rude yourself and getting into trouble as well!

If I'm honest, I find it hard to reply to you sometimes, because I see so much of myself in you, and I know that when I was in a similar headspace to you, all I wanted was to be kept safe and be looked after and have people be nice to me, but actually, that was the last thing in the world I needed. I'm aware that we're not exactly the same and that what helped me might not help you, but it's easy to forget that in the heat of the moment when you're on a replying rampage and just want to help someone help themselves. It can be frustrating and I think often it's because people care so much that they persevere in the hope that persistence will result in you eventually seeing things differently.

I'm aware this is getting long and probably off-topic (as usual for me!), so I will stop. I have cut this post down considerably, so feel free to PM me if you do want to hear my further thoughts, but equally I understand if you don't want to think right now about deeper questions about what you want and need, and that's why I'm making the choice not to bombard you with my thoughts on your support thread! I hope this reply makes sense and comes across as it is intended- I am not trying to justify rudeness at all, just trying to explain how sometimes best intentions can come across as being unhelpful!
