"Emergency"... I Decided to Explain Why...As Alot of People Seemed Very Hostile in Reponse... Although There were Some very Nice...Supportive and Helpful Individuals... When I First Discovered that my Friend had Over-Dosed...I Did All I Could to get Him to Call an Ambulance... At Same Time...On msn...I Asked for Help From Other People on my msn Contact List... However...They Only Tried to Convince me that he was Faking it All...And Did Not Need Help... So I Turned to Hipforums... Why? Because Hipforums is Where I First met Him..About 5/6 Years Ago... Why Random Thoughts? Because it Seems to be the most Active Thread on the Forums... Why Did I Seek Assictance in Situation? Because I was Unsure What to Do...He Lives in Another Country to me...And I Felt Powerless to help... However...I Could Not Sit Back With the Knowledge he Could Very Well Die That Night...When I Could Try to Do Something to Help Him... My Intentions were Good... I Did Not Plan to make a Thread of an Debate on Whether or Not to Help Someone Who has Just Over-dosed... I was Pretty much Freaking Out because he is a Very Close Friend of mine...And I Did Not want to Lose Him... Understandably...Some People believe I Should Have Let Him Alone to Die...But it is Not in my Nature to Leave Someone With an Obvious Cry for Help... It was me he Came to...it was me he Intended to be the Last person he Talked to... I am Pretty Sure he Did Not want Help at All...And Rather I Did Not Interfer... Which is Why I have Asked for the Deletion of the Thread I Started in RT... Especially because of All the Antagonists in There... Very Sorry to All the People Who Helped and Posted Positive Replies... maybe it was Not That Thread Which Got Him into Hospital...But I Still needed to Know That he was Alright... I am Still Quite Applad that Some eople Thought it was All a Hoax...Despite Electric Having Spoken to Montreal Police and found t he is in Hospital and is OK... I am Sorry if my Thread Annoyed or Angered You... But I Needed to Help Someone that Night... And I am Very Thankful for the Peope Who Did Help... It Proves What a Strong Online Community this Place is... Thank you All Again... And to the Antagonists who Posted in Reply...You've Really let Down the Forum...And Yourselves...In my Opinion... If you want to Attack Someone...Attack me... But Not Someone Who is so Obviusly Depressed that They tried to Take There their Own Life... Like I've Previously mentioned...My Intentions were Good...I Did Not want to make a Drama Out of It...
i completely understand i've come across alot of apathy and agressiveness online in situations like this and its not healthy i've seen far too many serius threads about serius issues from depression to eatting/body image disorders to suicidal thoughts or whatever just degenerate when someone would post odviosly antogonistic and innapropriate replies..i've seen posts to anorexics calling them fat that sent them right over the edge and other posts that are meant just to stir up trouble or cause conflicts without caring at all how much theyre words might hurt a situation thats already pretty desperate all i have to say is thank god the majority of the hipforums community is a community and stands up to do whats right to help eachother through crisis hf is manythings to many people and to some its very therapeutic to have the advice and support of a large community but sometimes ppl have nothing helpfull or supportive to say for whatever reaons and thats ok..but if what u have to say is odviosly going to make things worse..why say em at all? sorry just my bitchin but mud i dont care who they attack or not attack..the only thing that matters is u reached out to help a freind..and that wss the right thing to do
Baby...you did the only thing you could do ....and I would hope that if I was in trouble...you would be the one there !!!
ya know ithink of ya as the essence of what it meansto be a true earthmomma.. you just really care about all people as family.. and thats the way ive always felt too theres a realstrength in looking beyond yourself ..seeing others as real people not just words on a screen..and caring alittle about theyre feelings not just your mindless entertainment my point just is i admire your strength and your heart the true earthmomma.. warrior of light.. cries not only for her earth but for all her people.. its a beautiful thing
well Mudpuddle, I think what you did was extremely kind and you probably helped him a lot. I'm glad you did it, because he was obviously in need of treatment. I think it's wonderful that he has such a good friend in you. So don't feel bad about what you did, you did a good thing.
