I don't even know about living anymore

[Imkai]

This place might be a new sanctuary besides gaming while it's not fun on here it's making time fly fast again thanks for everyones input I appreciate it so much.

But it sounds like you've done all the right things in terms of reporting it @Imkai 

Have you cut off communication with this person altogether?

I hear your concerns about getting a job with these photos, but since you've reported it, maybe you'll just have to leave it at that? I feel that these scammers have bigger targets out there who they can get more money off and probably won't be wasting time if they know you don't have money. What do you think?

I know this doesn't take the stress away. As I said, I've been scammed twice before. They were successful once but not other. I changed all my passwords, account details, bank passwords etc. 

The best thing now if for you to look after yourself, even if it is a bit of gaming and also something else. Staying alone may just make things grow in your mind and lead you to think in not so helpful ways.

And just to confirm, we are all real people here. Anonymous, but real. We will never ask for your personal details.

LOL. You're funny. 

For me, in the past when things have been tough, my go to was to hide and isolate myself. But I later learnt that it did more harm than good. So nowadays, when I feel down, I don't let myself hide.

And yes, maybe these forums help because there's real life connection even though you are in the comfort of your own home.

Like I said I find it hard to interact with people it's that bad I can't talk to people over on like a group party online I'm really self conscious and this shit situation is not helpful. I know it's rude but I like it story gives me some hope. But I'm only going to talk about this online I'm not even talking to my parents. I have always been that one kid that's the shadow, I have always tryed to stand out, being class clown doing stupid shit ECT so yeah and thanks again for chatting with me it's helps me out a bit

[Imkai]

It's funny when I'm by myself I'm alone isolated I like it love being by myself it's not harming me well not yet. Also I'm a different person when Im around my mates it's like I'm fake constantly thinking like whats the next play/ chatting with them or anyone. But my confidence and care increase a lot 

[Imkai]

My self worries decreases I mean like care of what people think about me.

Believe it or not @Imkai , what you are describing about yourself is probably similar to the majority of people who use the forums. 

I can TOTALLY relate to what you are saying, because I'm totally one to be by myself too - and yes, part of it is okay because you can be quite comfy by yourself. But then again, in order to move on, grow and learn, we really do need to have others around us. 

Just keep doing what you are doing mate. 

As I say, live and learn.

[Imkai]

Well this live and learn moment is not good haha I should say I do interact with people but am like scared what they think of me and all that it's just me talking to the person and in my head at the same time. Im looking for a job because I'm desperate I think it will help I gotta get out of the house ass I have been here ever since I have finished school which is not good. 

[tyme]

Just remind yourself that you haven't finished school that long ago. Otherwise it seems like you've been at home for 10 years or so! @Imkai
