Katawa Shoujo Forums

Well, talking on a forum like this one is definitely valuable, but I wouldn't equate it with professional help. Certainly not in serious cases, and when you can get help from a skillful professional whom you trust and get along with well. The OHL: I should also try to find more friends I think, alth...

kotomikun, I think that you have a point there about bullying. School is very stressful to kids. The current school system with 1 teacher for, what, 30 kids is historically speaking much inspired on military training. It 's a way in which education is kept cheap, but it's far from an ideal system. I...

There was something I read about a depression, that has helped me to cheer up: "If the life doesn't make any sense, then nurturing a depression is twice as senseless". Hm, that sound better in Russian, to be honest :? Well it makes sense. It reminds me of what I think often: "I will ...

MrDogsniper, I was also attacked by a dog as a child, but I was saved by my mom in the nick of time and came out unscathed. The dog was put down later when it attacked someone else again. I still have a phobia for any dog that's bigger or louder than a cat. Dogs are wolves. Unreliable, cannot be tru...

Dunkelfalke, Well, yes, I guess people who say this want to give other some sense of perspective, but to me , it still feels like "Shadenfreude", so that's why I feel such an approach doesn't work for me. What works much better or me is to see how people who have difficulties overcome them...

Kotomikun, I read you message, and I can only say it's typical for someone to become isolated after being bullied. It's a natural reaction. I agree other people are too fast in saying "look how there are other people who suffer more". While that is true, it doesn't make me feel better. If ...

ank4vicos, First of all, I hate to ask this, but if possible, could you edit your messages and remove the italic/bold formatting. I'm sorry to say it but it's kind of annoying me. It feels like you're shouting all the time . With that being said, the docors though it was OK without chemotherapy? Her...

yank4vicios, first of all, I hope you will be completely cured and get well. Someone in my family also had cancer and I know it's a hard a hard time, a year or more of tiring treatments and hospital visits and checkups. But my family member was cured, and I hope first and foremost that you too will ...

Masuda, You story is is a classic story but of course it's terrible if it happens to you. I hope you get out of debt, and maybe get some of the money back from her by one means or the other. I think it must be hard to love again after such a thing happens, and I want to say I hope your heart will he...

It's true that people can suck, but so do I, so do we. If I think for five minutes I can come up with at least 3 ways I've treated other people badly as well recently. I agree with your post and all, but that one kinda put me off, it kinda depends on how you describe recently, but, even if I go as ...

Not to offend or accuse anyone, but I feel some negative attitudes are showing up more her. I'd like to "counteract" those a bit, since I don't want this thread to become too gloomy. It's true that people can suck, but so do I, so do we. If I think for five minutes I can come up with at le...

Kushiro, first of all, I hope you and everyone you care for comes home safely and unharmed. War sucks, but then again, I'm glad that some brave people like you are willing to fight to help and protect others. And it sound like it's been a life changing experience for you. I hope it doesn't make you ...

Wakagana: In my university time, I played a lot of MUD's. These are text-based online games, sort of the predecessors of the MMORPG's of today. And I learned something important from this: online games are a HUGE waste of time, and it's hard to stop playing them, since there is no end to the game. Y...

Beoran, I'm a bit concerned about the possibility of the game being very heavy and/or needy in terms of requirements, were it to be done with 3d models rather than sprites. Other than that though, if the engine the devs are working on can possibly be used with them, then all the better I guess. By ...

Micechaseskittens, one thing that struck me is how bad the schooling system was where you live (in Texas). I sounds like it's really sswarmed with rednecks. Here in my European country which I shall not reveal here I had a few mediocre teachers too, but nothing this outrageous. Some even cared for m...
