    Here, of course. The friendliness, empathy, and support of the people here, combined with the lovely wonder that is MLP, have helped me be happier than I've been in years.

    Maybe we are on different parts of the site. I don't see it.

    That's too bad then. If it weren't for the people on here, I probably never would have started singing, never gained any amount of confidence in myself (still working on this), never began to try to become a happier, more positive me, and never would have had people to turn to when things went wrong.

    I never said all people here were bad, but the majority bronies to me are jerks. Sure people here helped me with my whiny bull about my art, but I'd never truly quit. I'm to stupid to understand how simple that would be. And the people here, sure before at some point I may have felt the same but lately that's gone. I'd just leave but once again I'm to stupid to now how to quit. So here I remain.

    I disagree. As long as friends like you, Xan, Doggy, and Rex are around, this site is great to me. And no amount of your pessimism will sway me. :grin:

    Enjoy seeing what I can't then. I look out at the whole of bronies and all I see is greed, hate and rage with the little spot of love. Which in time will be buried too.

    That, of course, is because as a pessimist, you focus on the greed, hate, and rage and tend to gloss over the love, unless I am very much mistaken.

    I was never a pessimist, there was a reason a chose the word hope. It was once my favorite of the emotional spectrum, but that was the past. I see now that having useless hope in anything is a mistake. I know see the good point in avarice. This isn't the thread for this though. If you wanna know more PM me.

    Have you tried anti depressant?That helped me see hope.

    I see bronies as a smart ,friendly bunch of people.

    Of course we have those that go overboard....

    NO!

    If anything like that enters my body then I quit life.

    My point may be proving itself right now.

    Needing chemicals to feel better is NEVER a good thing.

    If others have to or need to take things that all on them. As for me, I refuse.

    well, for starters, I see Sprkypony's post as advice, that helped him (but may not be suitable for you, I also would rather take non chemical way), but the thing is, he posted that in intentions to help you feel better.
    True, I don't see that love and caring as it was before (except on where this thread started to go), but I don't see any particular intense hate either.
    In my perspective, everything started to be somewhat emotionally numb. (except maybe the smile project, those guys really show true spirit)
    However, Everypony.com is still one of biggest brony forums out there, therefore, it can have some influence in whole community.
    Now, I say, why won't we be ones that will bring bronies back to old track?
    Why wouldn't we be ones that will snow out love, tolerance, generosity, loyalty, honesty, kindness, laughter and magic to rest of brony community?
    I say we can do it, I know you guys have it in yourself.
    As well as ponies and buffaloes put behind their problems, and saw that they can be great friends, if you had problems with somepony else, I'm sure there's a way to put it behind, showing little bit of kindness and understanding.
    When we establish old state here, on everypony, we can spread out our love and tolerance all over brony community.
    If there's enough if us (which it is), and if we're consistent with our message to other bronies, other will follow our example.

    But sometimes a necessary thing. I have to take medicine daily to help with depression. :cry:

    I'm with you. I still believe in the brony spirit, and I want to do my best to keep it alive.

    I'd probabely write a whole speech if I weren't so tired right now. For now I'll go with this:
    I'm grateful for this community, and I love you guys. Not just as a word, but as a true feeling.
