I hate the fakers. I hate them. And i’m not a hating type of person. And then I feel terrible, because doesn’t that make me a terrible person? I don’t want to look down on them. I shouldn’t. Who am I to look down on them? I’m nobody. It’s awful. How do you take something like that? They’re the fakers, they’re the ones who give S.I.ers a bad name. It’s their fault people see the marks and say “she’s just looking for attention”. I think if I wanted attention I would find a more attention grabbing way to do it. Seriously.
and then everyone has that impression. Of us being attention seekers. No. Some of us need attention, yes, but not activly seeking it by SIing. Don’t they understand it’s not willing? It’s a drug. It’s a drug. and nobody calls the drug users posers looking for attention. So why us?
I’m sorry if I don’t make sense or I offend anyone. Goodness. and I hope I didn’t say anything that needs to be edited, because I feel bad for the website runner people, they’re amazing for doing this for us. : ) We really need someone to believe we need help. Cause if it were all for attention, why worry about triggering material? Gosh, you guys are amazing.
Me too, me too. It sucks that people think of us that way…
as i was reading your post i just kept nodding. lol. like you made total sense. its ridiculous because of a small group of people, the larger group who really has a problem cant ask for help. i mean i know i can ask for help for find help, but i mean the first though that comes to mind is “oh si? totally doing it for attention” like you said if i wanted to attention id do it where it would seek attention. =]
