Hello

I'm still not sure how to use places like this. For starter my spelling and grammar is very poor, tho I have improved over the last few years I'm still afraid to post anything.
The other thing that confuses me is how you follow everything that is going on in a thread, to me it seems like a blur of conversation (mild shutdown)

Other then that I'm going through some weird growing stage at this time, struggling to understand my emotions. Is this something that I can explore or ask about on here? For example I've been able cry in short periods using films and reading but sometimes don't understand the cause. I sometimes use films like Welcome to the NHK to reflect and help figure people out.

(sorry if that makes no sense)
 
It's hard for me to follow threads too, which is why I am not very active these days. If I see a specific topic discussion (ie. not stuff like "how are you feeling today") with more than 5 replies that's usually where I start to tune out: what's the point, everything that needs to be said has been said already, and going through and parsing every person's point takes too much energy.

Welcome. Seems like you have a few posts already so hopefully you are getting the hang of things here.
 
I'm fine with computers just don't use forums, but yes been trying to talk on here :)

Had no idea for a name and was eating Jaffa cakes - sorry they are all gone Steph :(

It's not necessary to follow everything that has been
said in a thread, necessarily. It depends on the topic.

I have never heard of Jaffa Cakes. (Until now.)
Apparently they look like this:

I don't even know what to type here JaffaCake
I started this forum about 4 months ago and still trying to get the hang of it. If it's an interesting enough topic, I will give my 5 cents. Other than that, I come here just for the human interaction. Welcome and yes, feel free to ask and explore all you want.
 
Welcome JaffaCake! Please feel comfortable and at home here. You are among friends. :)
