See now I'm taking this personally! And I know there's no reason to! But it feels a lot like social outcasting and being misunderstood I guess? Especially when it's not an opinion-based thing

And the fact that people are downvoting on a post where I'm explicitly stating that it hurts my feelings? Is even this community that harsh? Sure I'm probably overly sensitive, but it's because I want to feel like others relate to me and that was my whole reason in posting this. I don't know man I feel so othered right now I was just hoping to hear someone else say they feel the same

it’s like a big red button for some people. i used to be the same. fully deleted my account and abandoned the app over a couple of frivolous bullshit before i even knew what was RSD was (such pain living with it but not understanding it). it took me a while to have that barrier built for this app that allows for emotional separation. it’s kinda like opening the top of a massive ant farm of college kids & walking into the best and the worst of them & their thoughts/behaviors/experiences lol 😂
