I started reading this forum a while back and then joined when my regular go-to wasn't getting anything right.... I mean, nothing. I came on here for suggestions. I did find a good reader because of this board and the members here and I am grateful for that, I truly am. It is very possible some psychics visit this site and post under an alias but there are also people like me, who maybe want to consult a psychic to know what's next and to make more informed decisions. I used to call psychics to cope with problems but I don't do that anymore. I would call numerous psychics a week before. I would have a temporary happiness given to me for a per minute rate and it helped me sleep at night for a few days. I am not proud of that at all and I know looking back, I could have dealt with it differently. I go days, weeks, months without consulting psychics now. I have a new regular who is good for me and I still only call her about different things at different times. This is the thing, we all have been damaged, hurt and betrayed. We call psychics to get answers that the person or people who have hurt us won't give. We call to get hope that tomorrow will be better than today. I have seen people on this forum and even a recent post on this board saying people here are "unstable" or "they need help" but to me that is the pot calling the kettle black. I know there has been a lot of shade being thrown recently, it is almost crazy to me. We are here to give our experiences, who was accurate, who wasn't, etc... We are not here to promote one psychic like crazy and tear down every person who claims they didn't have a good reading with our favorite. We are not here to take low blows at others based on info they disclose to us. While you stand on your soapboxes preaching, remember, you're here for a reason too. You didn't just join this forum for fun. Be compassionate adn have a heart. We won't always agree, what's great for you can be awful for me. My goodness. This is so disheartening. This hate is so ugly. I think people are losing sight of the purpose this site serves. I truly will befriend anyone and share my story. I will give advice. I will do whatever I can to empower and encourage each and every one of you but please, can we PLEASE stop this hate? It is so ugly and disgusting. Agree to disagree and move on. I am praying for you all, truly, I am. I hope your predictions do come to pass, I hope you all find that missing piece that will make you happier. Just embrace the heartbreaking moments that will build your character and make you stronger later. Respect each other and be happy. My last thought on this rambled post is this. "Be mindful of what you say and do to others because you will see it again" Lots of love and positivity to you all.
I believe you are refering to me when you say 'pot calling the kettle black'. But I have never ONCE acted like I am above anyone else, or any different. I probably share too much personal information about myself than I wouldn't normally, but it's because I'm trying to drive home the fact that I'm not perfect either, and that I have called psychics looking for answers that I felt I couldn't get anywhere else. And yes, I do believe that some people who call psychics rely on them *too* heavily, and a lot of their animosity stems from being angry when something they believed so fervently didn't come true. I don't see anything wrong in me pointing out the obvious.
I have sat here and watched a few 'attacks' on this forum in the past few weeks, and some of the attacks were so far out of left field and so random and overtly cruel ( chat room incident, the email to Synergy ) that yes, I believe only someone who is emotionally unbalanced would inflict such unkindness on another person for no good reason. Is it so unfathomable that some people are so deeply hurting that they may need 'proffessional help'? Is it rude of me to say so? I don't think so. Especially since I haven't once named a person who 'needed help' nor have I stated to anyone 'you need help'. I said my heart genuinely breaks for people in that position who might only be prolonging their pain with fairytale readings as opposed to getting some therapist type help. In the end the therapist takes your money, too, but instead of telling you that your boyfriend/girlfriend is coming back to you, they will tell you what you need to know to strengthen your own spirit, whether this person comes back or not. I see that as me caring and hurting for those who hurt so badly that they are in a self-destructive cycle. But it seems you are seeing it as something I'm saying to just be nasty, and that doesn't sit well with me.
I don't appreciate being singled out as 'pot calling kettle black'. I never had to post my personal details, but I did, in order to help explain why I have particular thought patterns, just as much as anyone has any particular thought patterns on psychic readings, or why things have happened in their life, and why they are clinging to something, or moving on. It doesn't matter where exactly they are on their individual journey. Thoughts and feelings will eventually change.
I have done my due best to remain civil on this forum, even in the face of criticism, and have genuinely 'reminded' people to look at the bigger picture, and to focus on making themselves as happy and healthy by their own hand as possible. I don't see anything wrong with that.
But if I'm just a 'hypocrit' or a 'liar', then go ahead and add me to the list of people not coming back here. I'm in a place where I'm starting my life all over again, and I don't want to be in a place that drums up so much negativity.
