    And because I give a shit. I feel like this is something most people discard about me.

Have you tried giving a bit less of a shit? I have trouble relating to any "pressure" you felt being here. I don't want to minimize your troubles, but this is just a forum on the internet. Sure, we're all real people with real feeling and lives. And we shouldn't be dicks to each other.

I've myself made some great connections on here, and even met more than a couple awesome folks IRL :)

But it's also just a forum on the internet after all. You don't need to have an all out or all in attitude. Just come hang out when you feel like it. And you can also take breaks from time to time without "quitting". And not get too bogged down about what some assholes on the other side of the world that have never met you think of you. There are more important things to care about.
