Does coming to MLP Forums relieve your stress?

[Dashy 4 Ever 4,832]

A lot of times, I just feel overwhelmed and stressed out after a whole day of school and even more homework after. 

Coming here and meting my friends relives it completely and I feel at home once again in this awesome place.

Sometimes it is causing more stress than relieving it though when everything is working fine I'm having pretty good time here

[Jedishy 3,542]

Indeed it does. Coming here to talk with the wonderful members of this community is a great source of joy and relaxation to me. Even when I end up disagreeing with people I can usually have a chat about things we do agree on later down the line. I have never really found anyone to hold a grudge no matter how intense the debate or discussion which is a rare thing. 

[Red Cedar 1,407]

Not really, no. Just come in hope of something interesting.

Watching the show really relieves stress but the forums?  I think so. I have a good time on here. Also, I usually avoid social media when stressed anyway.

[Sunlight Glisten 368]

Definantly my after work detox. 

[Melanie Mousse 2,198]

Yes, it certainly does relive my stress after being bullied by a bunch of Freshmen at my HS because I'm the shortest Junior to exist. But really, though, I feel very relaxed on this site until I wait for someone to quote me and start and argument with me lol.

[Octavia Heartstrings 28,406]

Both watching the show and coming on the forums do a great job of relieving stress for me.

[Ganondorf8 11,118]

It does most of the time though sometimes I get more stressed than I already am due to some kind of forum drama.

Yes. Even when I come on here and read opinions that I could not disagree with more, I'm still just so glad to be on a site with a community that is so welcoming and accepting of different viewpoints. This forum's atmosphere is much more positive than any forum I've been on so far, and that's always good enough for me. 

[Lord Midnight Madness 1,542]

I enjoy coming here after work. I like reading what people have to say and seeing how everyone's doing this is much better than social media.

It did before. Coming here used to be a source of excitement for me. These days, not so much, but that's mainly because not many things eases my mind anymore.

[Dreambiscuit 8,024]

I like to come here when I need to relax. It's a pleasant way to pass a little time when I'm too tired to work on my creative projects.

[Here No Longer 5,270]

It doesn't relieve my stress, but it does help a little. It used to help more when I had a boyfriend on here back on my old account (most recent ex), but it still helps because I can vent and I know there are people who can listen and relate to what I have to say. It also helps to have people like myself around, even if it is on a forum site.

Though that isn't always the case when some s*** starts forum drama (can't put names here, but I really want to...). I've almost been banned over that f***ing s*** before... At least this isn't Reddit, that whole place is toxic as f***. Seriously,  it is. It's also not Facebook either. The whole site is cluttered with junk that doesn't matter in any way...

[TBD 17,228]

eh, I'd still feel the same, it's just helps with passing the time. 

[Patty Thundersnow 4,129]

Temporarly, it does help. But, it depends on the amount of stress.

[Earl Grey Ghost 444]

It really depends. I go here just to socialise and have fun, show some artwork and have a discussion or two. I wouldn't say it is the first thing I go to, but it's a great way to pass the time with some fellow fans.

[Appley Hooves 136]

Depends on what I end up reading lol, so basically like Steam minus 75% of the passive aggressive crazy people.

[Traitorous Pony 29]

As appley said, it all depends on what i read.

[CandyCorn 427]

Not really. The only thing that relieves my stress would be my heroes. *shrug*

[Olly 1,008]

No but occasionally I say something and someone replies 

[Rainbow Cloud 16,290]

Yeah I find coming here does help relieve stress, it's a nice place just to relax and have fun

[aoEAF2FBvC0MIo2Q 3,671]

Heh. It used to. But not anymore. The thing is, stress can actually be exciting when you welcome the adrenaline rush. That really makes all the difference between suffering from stress and relishing in it.
