I dont know. Maybe no one says it, but they think it, lol.

Ive been on here a month or so, and gotten some great personal messages, but on the actual forum, its hard to connect. Most of the replies are short and not really meaningful or even helpful, not everyone's, but some. I think a lot of people are fighting their demons and not looking to make friends per say, but more get information, vent, or share their story. Does that make sense?
I really think people are giving what they can Nighthawk. Even if the response is short ,at least there is acknowledment of the poster. This seems helpful in my opinion. We are all here to give and receive support.
