However I dont understand why you dont just make it a disscussion here?
Some of the points you made I agree with and think would make for a good discussion

I agree.

I don't know if you can appreciate what that feels like, to look at your life and wish you could start over from the beginning and do everything different.

Dearest Streen, the past may have shaped you but it is no indicator of the present, you are a wonderful person. Shame/guilt is a lesson a curse and a gift depending how you look at it, but that could be said about all kinds of things right?
If you wish to do things different or to start all over I would like to encourage you to do it. There is beauty in change as it reminds us of 'value'. If you need an ear please PM the Clergy or someone you feel comfortable with. If there is something I can help you with please let me know.

how should people react to this?
you say you wish you could do things differently but this is the same pattern you always follow

i mean its almost verbatum
"gee, sorry everybody. i know ive been doing things wrong but you know, ive come to realize something... oh btw, heres a link to my new website"

....then you vanish

so maybe you could do things differently this time by engaging some of the people in this thread who have made genuine attempt to talk to you.

i dont mean ME btw lol i give you a hard time all the time so i dont blame you for not wanting to answer to me, but martalina and zenchi, br john and elizabeth, and now codex, all have made an attempt, a sincere attempt i think, to create a dialogue with you.
you could honor those attempts, show them the respect that such bids for connection deserve, if youd really like to do things differently

everybody wants to be accepted, and we all want to feel connected to others, maybe thats what youre after right now. if so, heres your chance; you opened this topic, stick with it. dont just linkdrop and disappear this time

I know most people here have a poor perception of me, and I don't blame them

That probably gives you comfort,

The alternative being that we have no perception of you at all

Anyway, your post reads like one of a million spam emails I get each day "I can't talk here, but check out my pics on hotrussianbridesdotcom xoxox"

I'm not in the business of clicking on strange links, so either make your thoughts known here, on the forum, where people discuss their thoughts, or go away

You know what they say, want to never be proven wrong? Start a blog.

Streen, you should definitely sell ebooks. Suspense and emotional appeal work wonderfully there.

Streen... resurrected for what, the 100th time? Thinking of that name does not conjure thoughts of leadership, integrity, mentorship, strong character, or steadfast morals... skitzsophrenia on the other hand...yea.

This is not a dig designed to inflict damage for damages sake. Moreso it's an attempt at a wakeup call... although probably a futile one as you seem to never learn and never get better. The curtain closed on your tired act some time ago and yet you continue to perform, oblivious that your audience has become bored with the hipocracy and left.

I don't know what else to say... if you can't recognize these facts you are truly lost. Many here still want to help, although only "the force" knows why, but if you can't make that first step into the light and truly admit you have a very deep seated problem there is no path back. Only you can make that journey through the dark to reach out in true sincerity, no one else.

My first thought after reading this. Made me smile.

I don''t think its appropriate to be having people providing unsolicited mental health diagnosis in the main forum areas.

Yes, it is annoying, and borderline a breach of the spirit of the 'don't post just to link to ones own site', but unless someone is a qualified mental health expert I am going to assume it's name calling and itself a breach of the rules.

Something to consider is that cleaning up ones own posts of offending phrases does help remove prior history for people prone to repeat offending, but most importantly mitigates the damage caused by the initial breach.

Thank you Adder you beat me to it , i recommend people who respond here to adres Streens ideas and not his personanl issues or psychological wellbeing , it really is highly uncalled for and very un Jedi
