happens so often, they just crave to make OP the villain any chance they get. That’s why its like walking on eggshells here. Literally I posted once that “oftentimes when I meet shitty people, I get upset, how do I not care anymore“. I really meant “when I meet shitty people, I often get upset” but I got a comment saying “if you meet shitty people often, you are the shitty person”. Not only did this response not answer my question, it just misunderstood me to insult me, just assuming the worst about a person that they don’t know the first thing about! WTf. I hate Reddit. I already feel so isolated, like I can’t relate to anyone. I have a ton of anxiety as well. I came to reddit because I’m desperate for socialization. Reddit has make made feel even more isolated and anxious and increased my feeling of not relating to others, fml.

it was not “controversial” btw, just embarrassing. I posted a lot about my bizarre and cringe fears on Reddit because the thoughts constantly bothered me and I thought probably no one would really care or notice because Reddit is mostly anonymous and there are so many posts on here. but even then some people notice I was repeatedly posting and were really mean about it. I really regret it but tbh I was really struggling with my thoughts and mentally ill and this is how I sought out support I guess. but I do feel guilt and ashamed and I hate that I’m this was and I wish I wasn’t. but somehow, even though my posts are hidden and I havent given my personal details or anything, somehow I’m paranoid that someone would dig up my posts, connect the dots somehow, find out it’s me, and tell others and it’ll get out there and I’ll be publicly shamed or something. maybe I’m just paranoid. at this point, I feel almost schizophrenic but hopefully not. does Reddit opinions or posts really matter that much? I thought it wasn’t that serious.

I’m ashamed to have done this. also my theme is “taboo” so it was worse

I saw a thread on ask Reddit about whether people remember others embarrassing moments and a lot of them said yes and they still remember moments from elementary school decades ago and it seems like the still look down on these people and everyone who was there sees these people lowly. this has always been my biggest fear. I’ve had my moments but sometimes I feel lucky it wasn’t worse. this whole thing sometimes makes me want to homeschool my kids, but I also wouldn’t want them to miss out. I feel like I still ruminate about one time specific incidents from decades ago and it kills me. why are people so mean and unforgiving sometimes, for minor mistakes. it would really sucked to be shamed and either move or get constantly bullied. how do I get over this/this fear. I think it’s ruining my life. and that thread def triggered me and it felt like all my fears are real. I feel like I can’t live like this with this worry anymore.

I saw a thread on ask Reddit about this and a ton of people said they remember other people’s embarrassing moments decades into the future and how they might ”be dead” now and everyone remembers and seems to see these people very lowly. this has always been my biggest fear in life. I always think of moving away, and it really bothers me. I’ve had bad moments but sometimes I feel like I’ve gotten lucky and it could have been worse but who knows in the future

a while ago, I saw a girl who got trashed all over the internet and her college admission was revoked because she sang along to a song with the n word in it one time. I’m not endorsing this or saying it was good, and I def think she shouldnt have done it. but I feel like the backlash was so harsh for something relatively minor. it’s not like she directly bullied or harmed someone. I’m terrified that some dumb or embarrassing shit I say or do could be exploded into “that incident“ and no one will ever respect or want to be around me again. and I’ll be mocked or hated forever. it gives me a ton of anxiety.

I post about my mental health in order to get support sometimes. But there are trolls out there who have stalked my hidden posts commented things like “you deserve to suffer“ on them, just because I said something they didn’t like. and by that something, I mean something like call out blatant misogyny, like saying that the statement “women will betray you with your secret, dont trust them” is misogynistic a f and makes no sense. the Incels on here have zero life for real. they need a ”safe space” to complain and blame women for all their problems and harass women as much as they can.

yeah in general, dont post personal things on here I guess. Huge mistake and didn’t get much help

2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022

is time travel possible? why am I gay? I have a friend I left behind. it was better back in the good ole days of 2018. it is possible. take me back.

I have a fear of peeing myself, and a bunch of people seeing me and making fun of me. this happened to me once when I was like 5 but the memory shook me that much I guess. I feel so ashamed because this is related to OCD I think and I’ve been repeatedly posting about it and people even thought I had a fetish. The whole thing makes me want to die. And now that I’m an adult, my fear has shifted towards more I’m afraid this will happen to someone else, especially my kid. I’m worried they’ll never recover and everyone around them will forever taunt them or something and they’ll never be able to forget it. That one scene from Stranger Things triggered me so hard. this is not a joke. This fear is so hard to live with yet impossible to talk about without getting judged. I’m struggling so much

has anyone else noticed that mean comments that often interpret the OP in the most negative way possible and are insulting/accusing OP are often upvoted a lot? this is why it feels like walking on eggshells here, any vagueness leads to assuming the worst. fuck this place, where so many people want to kick those who are already down to feel better. btw i love that there is a sub for these kinda post, Reddit is really ass some (a lot) of the time, but it is addictive

I’m scared because as a kid, some bullies would love to irritate me. these were the type of bullies that were hard to catch, they would do all their bullshit when the teacher wasn’t watching. idk why but when I’m angry I have intrusive thoughts to say the most offensive thing possible. I know this is dangerous because it could ruin my life when I’m most vulnerable. anyone else experience this?

you gotta read what you write a hundred times. because if there’s anything vague, people assume the worst. and it’s all your fault. people literally come to this site to prey on vulnerable people to put them down. it’s disgusting.

I keep seeking reassurance for my fears and seeking validation. I’m addicted. I’m also always hurt but negative comments, which I get frequently. I am just so filled with anxiety and i feel lonely and I used Reddit to interact with others and vent. but it backfires. I want to somehow get rid of my fears and stop being so affected and addicted to Reddit. it’s just so hard living like this.

how fucking ironic. got a bunch of messages saying I’m a bot and they reported me. just for asking if anyone else gets called a bot if someone doesn’t like what they have to say. WTF. I’m so done with this site. nothing but rage bait trolls. takes absolutely nothing for them to hate on you and be “enraged”

I keep fearing that I’ll screw up somehow, on something minor, and people around me will blow up on me, hate me, never forgive me, etc. I keep thinking about how I should always have a plan to move away if needed. this fear even makes me scared of having kids because I’m afraid this will happen to them. its paralyzing. how do I get over this.
