When reading your comments, do you find it a little bit cathartic that you're just as nuts as everyone else?

Asked by FGS (1932points) March 31st, 2009

I believe its all just a matter of degrees.

I don’t use Fluther as catharsis, and I don’t think very many of us are nuts.

@gailcalled I think everyone has a screw loose here or there. Some are just looser than others ;)

I don’t use it as catharsis either, but it is cool to read threads like Simone’s OCD thread (sorry, don’t remember the exact question) and realize that so many people out there have similar quirks.
Sometimes people on here will admit to thinking, feeling, or doing things that are similar to what I do but keep to myself because they make me feel a little nuts, and I don’t want to talk about them with people in my “real” life.

I should add, however, that I would have loved this site when I was a teenager, stumbling around in the wilderness of no information and inaccurate information about female sexuality. The books that my mother gave me to read were fantasy and very unhelpful.

@gailcalled I have thoroughly enjoyed my time on both WIS.DM and Fluther. In many ways I have learned not only more about people, but myself as well.

@FGS: I hope that your time here in future is fun and informative as well.

Heh, I don’t have to read my comments to know everyone is a bit nuts.
I see that all the time.

It always amazes me that no matter how weird a habit I may have, someone else has it too.

FGS's avatar

@augustlan It makes me feel not quite so alone or weird.

Maybe we’re not crazy but just people with problems in our lives.

We’ve all got those and while we’re not happy to have problems at least we can all relate to each other.
