Should I Stay or Should I Go? (mostly serious)

^ In case you couldn't tell that was the not serious part

 

Anyway.

 

Here's the thing. This place has more often than I'd like to admit make me feel like s***. In part because I worry about every single one of you people. I am not exaggerating. In some way, I care about you all. I can't help it.

I've gotten sad, angry, hurt, etc etc from people and things happening here. It can be extremely toxic and harmful.

Not to mention it sucks up a lot more time than I really realize until I think about it. And that disturbs me.

I don't get to do as much as I'd like because of this place, and sometimes I wonder if it's worth it.

 

But on the flip-side, there are people who I'd miss, things I'd miss doing/seeing. And I found that the people I would miss might not be the people I expected. People I don't even necessarily talk to outside of here in some cases.

Plus, while I might complain about caring, I do legit feel happy knowing there are people that I care about here. Confusing right?
I also feel like I'm needed here, sometimes, which is something I myself might need. I'm not so sure on this one yet.

And I do generally enjoy things that go on here.

 

But it's hard, and I don't know how to feel about anything anymore. So basically this is just a bit of a ramble to let all you people I care about know how things stand with me.

If I leave, sorry, it might happen or it might not. I'm really not sure. But I felt I should say something.

The choice of whether you decide to leave or not lies solely within you.

If you genuinely still care about people here on YCM (and vice versa), then stay around or take a short break.

 

Indeed, we do care about you (in a similar vein to what you do for us).

If you opt to leave for a while (or forever, if you feel that there really isn't anything for you to do here anymore), then it's your call to make that.

 

Don't let our words sway what your next choice of action will be.

We can all ask that you stay around for a while, through the good/bad, but once more, that decision lies with you.

 

While yes, YCM has had some crap periods over the years; there've also been good ones as well.

Consider your situation carefully and decide what you feel is best for it.

If you feel a short break is necessary to reflect on this, then by all means, do it.

 

But just know that we'll always be here if you decide to take that step away, and then decide to return at a later time.

What everyone else said. My friends are exactly in a similar situation, except its their relationship rather than a forum. And they decided to take a break and let themselves cool off for a while.

So if you stay, great. But if you take a break, great. We'll still be here when you're back and you can focus on yourself and other things that you haven't had time for recently.
