Anyone get tired of SPW?

I read SPW almost everyday and sometimes I get tired of talking about SA and all of other problems. I seen some of you talk hear all day long, how can you do that? And I get bored, nothings interest me. Is it just me?

usually people in the chat box talk about other things, so maybe u can try that or the "off-topic" forum

The best thing to do if you find yourself getting bored or find that other peoples problems are bringing you down is take a break, go away for a few day/weeks whatever and come back when you think you can handle it. I do that a lot and it does help a little!
 
To be honest.
I am considering stopping posting here and also stopping comming here.
It has helped a little, some good replies an advice but as said by others
a lot of the new posts are just things people have brought up before.
Then their is the negativity which can bring one down.

Yeah, it's very negative and after I've been on it for a while I start thinking about SA and other mental illnesses all day long and end up thinking I'm a lot worse off than I probably really am. Still, it's nice to know people are experiencing similar things and to try and be there for others (though I've noticed I tend to "kill" threads; once I've posted, nobody else does, or my post gets totally ignored, lol. That's why I never hang around forums very long!)

it's not the negativity but the stupidity that tires me and keeps me from coming here more often. i don't mean to offend anyone, but really if you look 95% of threads here are about girls, virginity, crushes, leaving this forum and self suicide. i used to post stoopid things like that too 3 and more years ago and am ashamed of it but on the other hand glad that i grew out of it. but sometimes theres little diamonds among all the s.hit here and thats why i keep coming here, and the boredom of course.
 
Maybe I really need a break from here. On the other hand lets say after a while I will come back here and I get tired again. So the cycle repeats.
There is some really good posts, but the other side(much bigger one) is negative which is bringing me down. Same topics, same problems. As I see the positive posts there is much similarity to books. Maybe I should read a book and do whats on the book told? But for me it feels like talking to dead people.

to release:
I'm lonely too and I have no place to go, but I'm starting to think that staying here won't help me much. I haven't found any "live" people from my location so everything is virtual. But the virtual talking is so cold.

to blue-roses:
This time my post is going to be the last :) I think if you want not to be a killer you must gain respect in community, you need to post much more.

I like coming here but of course you need a few websites to go to, don't keep coming if your tired of it take a break then you'll appreciate it more.

I'm not tired of it yet as I'm a newbie, technically, but I know I will be tired of it eventually because I get that way with every forum I post on. Right now I don't mind the similar threads cause I see this place as a sort of refuge for people to go when they need to let out emotions that they're afraid to tell others about.

The negativity does get to me once people make a post basically saying "F-ck it all! It's never going to get better!" though. Those people are in distress and are getting lower and lower and I can't say anything to them so I just get brought down with them.

I've been here since Jun '08 and check out my post count. lol
There's only so much to say about social phobias. They suck. Maybe I'm an exception, but I actually like to read what others have to say in a thread.
And it's true what PunkRotten said, the only way to get better is get out there and learn. My problem is finding that motivation. I don't have many friends, and I get really bored and lonely at times so SPW is an easy solution I guess.

even though i am new here I am not new to the whole chatting with people who have SA and what not...For a while I used to actually chat everyday in chatroom called Panic and Anxiety...I dont really feel My goal was to get help from it(even tho there was people who could give good advice) I think it's More of a way to meet people who are just like you...and can relate...I ended up getting sick of that chatroom after like 2 years or so...mainly because of petty fights with other "regs" ...at the time I was happy to stop chatting there.

Now though the chatroom doesn't exist and I kind of wish I could chat there again...If nothing more to just be around People who "get it" ..thats why I joined this site.

P.S Also when I discovered that chatbox I was VERY happy ^_^
