Using this topic as a reminder that if you suffer from any mental health issues, doesn't matter which ones (Depression, Panic/Anxiety disorder etc), you are not alone.

Alora thrives for being more than a game, and that we are here to help each other out no matter what.

I just want to let you know that if you need someone to talk to, you can always PM me in-game/forums/discord. As someone that suffers from depression for more than 5 years, I can relate that the battle against these types of issues can be a living hell.

Talking about it is a huge step towards the right direction, so if you need someone to talk to about what's going on in your mind, I'm here.

Great post my friend. I hope people will be brave enough and talk to you if needed.

Feel free to add my details also if you wish. Having lost a friend to suicide I try to be there for anyone and everyone I possibly can be. Would hate for anyone to feel so low they feel the need to do that.

God bless you, king purple. 

 

I had suffered from depression in the past. Suffering from depression is like drowning, except you can see everyone around you breathing. It built up for months and months...People I loved - I would shut them away. Things I loved, such as doing my hobbies or going out with friends/socialising - I began to hate. I was always a morning person, but as soon as I woke up from a sleepless rough night, I would just continue to lay in bed for hours on end, and I wouldn't even get up to have a wash. I'm not going to go into too much detail, but I eventually couldn't hold it in any longer and I finally had the courage to speak to other people regarding my depression and issues, and it was most likely one of the best actions I have taken in my current lifetime. Of course it didn't make my depression disappear straight away, it still took some time, but speaking out to other people is what got me through it, and I have felt so much better as a person since and before suffering depression.

 

Don't be afraid to speak out to other people, there are people out there who love and care for you, therapy sessions are under rated, and they are very helpful as well. You are stronger than you believe or feel in this moment, trust me. Keep fighting. 

 

If we can just all speak out about our experiences or our loved ones experiences we can help other people who suffer with mental illness not feel so alone and help them get better. Let’s keep this dialogue going.

I really appreciate you for making this post. We don’t have to fight through this alone. It can be a challenge to talk about what we are going through, but it’s not impossible. Although the following seems like the only solution, it is unhealthy to bottle up our emotions because it takes a toll on us in the long run. I’m also willing to help out those in need of someone to listen to what’s on your mind and what you’re feeling.

I can be contacted via forum PMs as well as on Discord: Moral Truth#5148

Much love to all of you.

[Shawn TM]

Wow purple! Much love for you!

I want to speak a bit about this a bit. Before I was staff, there weren't many players opening up to me. When I became SS, the amount of personal information exchanged with me increased. Then I became Server Mod. That's when player personalities changed from game-related to personal in a increasingly unique way. Players were spilling their frustrations about everything.

I listened.

To this day, I firmly believe that a smile can save a life. I try to stay positive, mostly for me, but generally to spread it to others. I always try to defuse situations appropriately. Staff or not, I welcomed concerns and issues not relating to Alora because other people levels of happiness is different.

I look for the light in a dark room. I try to be this light in a dark room. Light being hope and dark is negativity.

I too am available for anyone to talk to. I'll listen without judgment.
My Discord tag is in my signature as well as my other accounts. Feel free to contact me.

Not all conversations were personal issues and not all people are the same. Truth is a lot of the time as staff was helping others. It's fucking easy and toddlers can do it.

I care. That is all, thank you.

[GroupIronman]

Purple your an absolute gent. Much love to you

Thank you for doing this, this is going the extra mile and its awesome to see someone do it.
