WittleWabbit 33 February 13, 2015 Share February 13, 2015 (edited) My Favourite Mane 6 Pony fluttershy How did you find MLP Forums? How you became a fan of My Little Pony I havn't been a brony for that long, but I know a lot about this fandom already. I have read many fanfictions, usually ranging around 200-300 thousand words each reading them in one week. I spend my time usually watching animations, listening to pony music, etc. This fandom is pretty much saving my life. I have started to become super depressed, with barely any friends in my life and always being treated like trash. Only my best friend knows that i'm a brony and hes ok with that, but all the other people that bully me constantly, i don't know how they would react to me being one. (Im 14 btw) I have... considered suicide multiple times, but i am too much of a wimp to actually do that. And hateing myself isn't helping at all. But this fandom, it just makes me happy. I am wondering what I should do with my life.. I am just getting really sad lately with no one understanding me. Possible someone could help me out? I just dont know what to do anymore.. Why cant the real world be like Equestria and everypony accepts eachother and gets along with the magic of friendship? Anyway, I knew this site existed for a while but never bothered to sign up until now. Hope I enjoy these forums discussing with you guys.

Administrator Sir Hugsalot 9,367 February 13, 2015 Administrator Share February 13, 2015 Hi :3 I'll cut the greeting short this time, I'll just get to the helping part 1) Quality over quantity, it's better to have small number of friends who You can completely trust than many friends who can backstab You any minute. You have someone. Someone who accepts You as whole, that is a great person to have in life. And I am sure eventually You will find more. Maybe there are some kind of brony meetups in Your area? You can always meet new people there. 2) How many people bully You? And is it like calling You bad names or do they go further? Did You try telling teachers or parents about it? I too had bullies when I was young and all I know is that now I am in college, I have a job and they can barely exist, because time they could've spent on learning they've wasted on drinking or pestering others. And from what I know most bullies end up like that after school, when beating other people does not impress anyone anymore. 3) You're 14 years old. You have many years ahead of You, don't even think about suicide and be happy You did not commit it yet. By that You'd lose all the chances to make Your life better and You will also hurt others including Your best friend. Don't even think about going in that direction. Life will get better for You *hugs* And it's hard for me to tell what You should do. It is Your life and it is up to You on what do You want to do in future. Look on Your interests. Think of building future around them. But also remember - You're still 14, there are years before You will have to make final decisions so don't rush it. I made such decision when I was 21, so... Also about Equestria part - I wish it could be like Equestria too, but problem is - for that humanity would have to change. And humanity as whole is still like children and certain people do their best to keep it that way. That's why I encourage people who tell me how they despise learning to not say that. We need to educate ourselves so that we won't fall for cheap lies sold under populism. 7 As one person I cannot change the world, but I can change the world of one person.

catnet 9,359 February 13, 2015 Share February 13, 2015 Hey there, welcome to the forums! It's great to have you here, and everypony- myself included, if that's okay - would be happy to show you around or help with whatever if you wish I hope you enjoy your stay in this friendly community, and feel free to send a PM my way if you wish! I've been through a similar experience myself before- the depression, the self-hatred- so I can relate You've still got so much ahead of you, though, so as dark as things may seem, please don't give it all up- I thought there was no hope for my own future once, but finding these forums, walking away from the things that had caused me sadness and distress, I realised how wrong I was. There's always hope, as hard as it may be to see it. As for what you can do with your life, you still have plenty of time to figure things out, and so much more to learn about yourself, so don't worry if you don't know what to make of your life yet And I don't know why the whole world can't be like Equestria either, I'll be honest- but, knowing that this community and other people out there are like it, is what matters most in the end. There's a mini Equestria in this world- you just need to find it for yourself If you ever want to vent on me, I'd be happy to listen and help if I can Brohoof~ /)* 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I being bullied (and this sensation accompain me for many years) when i was 12 for different reasons and always be alone. When i was 19 i started thinking on suicide often, but i always refused to do because i had too much things to loose, like my passions, my stuff, my family, my life of course... So never give up! You're always be welcome here!

ShadOBabe 19,023 February 14, 2015 Share February 14, 2015 Welcome to the forums!! Know that there are people here for you to talk to. But you should consider talking to someone with some credentials, like a psychologist or a counselor. Most of us are all just kids on the internet. We care, but there's not much we can do from the other side of a computer screen. 2 Check out my artwork any time: http://shadobabe.deviantart.com/ "OMG; You are such a troll.

Ice Fox 1,146 February 14, 2015 Share February 14, 2015 Welcome to the forums! Hope you have a great time here. And I'd like to say something that may help you: People who bully others are usually the weakest and most insecure themselves, and so they bully others to protect themselves from the same treatment. Knowing that may make their treatment easier for you to stand up to. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooblee 121 February 15, 2015 Share February 15, 2015 Welcome to the forums! I'm not very good at words sometimes, but I'll try to explain as best as I can... I havn't been a brony for that long, but I know a lot about this fandom already. I have read many fanfictions, usually ranging around 200-300 thousand words each reading them in one week. I spend my time usually watching animations, listening to pony music, etc. This fandom is pretty much saving my life. I have started to become super depressed, with barely any friends in my life and always being treated like trash. Only my best friend knows that i'm a brony and hes ok with that, but all the other people that bully me constantly, i don't know how they would react to me being one. (Im 14 btw) I've felt very depressed within the last year or so as a result of a number of factors (some of them being ones you said, like lack of friends and my own introversion.) I think the fandom has helped me out a lot too, and it makes sense if you think about it; Friendship is Magic is all about how to make friends, and how to be kind, which is reflected in the fans of the show. All of them? No, but mean people are everywhere, regardless of where you are, this fandom being no exception. But, I think we have the most abundance of caring people. How many other fandoms do you know that have a large groups that help charity organizations like Bronies for Good does? It may just be me, but I can't count a single one. I've seen (at the very least) a good 5-6 posts in these forums along the lines of "Complement the User Above You!" or "Rate How Much You Like the User Above You!" If that doesn't say something, I dunno what does. Long story short, you've come to the right place. I have... considered suicide multiple times, but i am too much of a wimp to actually do that. And hateing myself isn't helping at all. But this fandom, it just makes me happy. I am wondering what I should do with my life.. I am just getting really sad lately with no one understanding me. Possible someone could help me out? I just dont know what to do anymore.. Why cant the real world be like Equestria and everypony accepts eachother and gets along with the magic of friendship? BIG misconception I see with those who have attempted or talked about committing suicide is that they say they're "too wimpy" to go through with it. This is wrong. Dead wrong. The only thing this proves is how strong you are. Being able to deny yourself of this action is an act of strength, not cowardice. You don't see it yet, but you have a fulfilling life ahead of you. Cutting it off now would be no good. You're a living being. You'll go through some hardships, some "unconquerable" mountains, times that seem too dire to come back from, but no matter what, you have to strive on. We're a giant, loving community here at the MLPForums (and anyone else who says otherwise is wrong) and we're here to welcome you with open arms. I'm personally kinda still new to the forums (I've been on for about two months-ish), so I don't know every nook and cranny of this place, but if I recall correctly, there are places to vent and to seek help (and while I'd recommend seeking help from a professional, I know that costs and the stigma can be a little overwhelming.) Again, hope your welcome to the forums is warm, that you find the help you need and many good friends, and that your stay on the forums is a pleasant one. Have a nice day! 2 I does the chiptunes.
