I have a point to prove and I'm damn well going to prove it.

First of all, you are allowed to say whatever you want on this board, I'm not harping on your for that, but don't you ever regret it. You have the chance to not say something, you have the chance to formulate your thoughts. You don't need to complain that you didn't really mean to say something or whatever shit.

Secondly, I could care less if you're mentally depressed or whatever. I am. I've had more than one counselor tell me so. Get over it. Don't use that for pity, use it as justification. My depression justifies my violent mood swings. It doesn't mean people should feel sorry for me.

Third, you really do need to wake up from your fantasy world, and that's partially what JBTH is here for. JBTH is meant as a dreamlike world that introduces you to real situations, but candy coats it with fun and games. That's the point. You are supposed to learn here that the world is a cruel bitch. People are going to hate you in your life for no reason at all, you need to know that feeling now so you can cope with it later. In all actuality, my harsh words are probably better for you. Not everyone can coddle you and tell you it's going to get better. It's not. Life gets hard. Learn that now and you'll have a better chance later.

Fourth, no, I'm not happy you're leaving. While I am happy that it means an end to this and a bit more peace and quiet, it also reminds me that JBTH is dying. Too many people have lost the point of view that this is a place to learn. So many people think it's going to be complete fun and they can forget about their lives here, but it's meant for you to step into a new dimension, where your life is still real, but there are people who can understand and will help you out, even if that means they yell at you. I don't rejoice when people leave, even my enemies. "Keep your friends close but your enemies closer" ne? This arguement has taught me things as well, and therefore I enjoyed it.

As you depart and complain about a bitter wench ragging on you for seemingly nothing, take something with you. Take some knowledge, some more grown up part of you, take the memories of friendship and pain. Take those and harbor them, for someday, even if you don't conciously realize it, they will help you in some way.
