Isn't this site for support?

I am on here everyday mostly just reading through the different post.....not usually commenting but I enjoy reading about what other people are going through, and how I relate to each different person with out even knowing who they are. It is discouraging to see so much negativity towards each other. So what if you think someone asked a "stupid" question, it is obviously still a question worthy of an answer. Or if there is something you may not agree with, then fine, move on from the post. I guess it seems that we are all going through similar things with our bodies, and emotions, and everyone should support each other. That is what I was getting from this site, with out even engaging in conversation, I felt encouraged and supported. I hope that everyone can be a little more encouraging to others.....So that is really all I have. I hope everyone is having a great day. I was able to eat lunch today, so I feel pretty successful ;-)

    Yay for eating lunch today!  Isn't it funny when the small victories make us so excited?!  Last night I only had to get up once to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night...instead of the usual 2-3 -- wahoo! :)

    Have a great day!

    I noticed that yesterday. It was kind of mean.

    But I'm a newbie to chatting in general, so what do I know. Maybe its normal.

    glad you were able to eat lunch today.  i think this place is far more supportive than it is negative.  it is best to not take the negativity too serious, most of it comes from a place of humour believe or not.  i think today has just seen a lot of silly bickering and so it seems like a "bad" day on here.  please stick around and don't be discouraged.

    Congrats on eating lunch today!!

    The negativity bothered me when I used to post on Wedding Woes and made dealing with my wedding drama even harder. I was determined to not let it get to me this time around. I'm not religious by any means, but I try to live my life by "make me an instrument of your peace," and I carry that onto the board. I feel like I don't stick up for the underdog quite as much as I should, but, eh, I try!

     Not to mention - there are very very few women on the board who are truly negative. Most are extremely supportive, and will give a kind word to someone in a sad or stressful situation.

    The board is what you make it. I hope you enjoy being here! H&H 9 months to you!

    That's awesome you had lunch!  I bet that is a good feeling, I'm sure it will just get better from here.  Sorry about those couple of replies you got, not everyone is like that :)

    No It's not. Even tho I totally agree with you. They'll probably tell you something stupid about puppies and rainbows because of your post! 

    I've been lurking and I can't stand the snark and snobby girls that think they are the ***. They sit at home like middle school girls making "lists" of all the people that they hate on the boards. Oh i have a list of people I hate on the bump....oh I'm such a grown up. They all seem to believe that being rude and snarky is cool and funny, & that supportive people should go to babygaga. Well I think they all need to get a life and stop posting allllll day long. Better yet make their own message board somewhere else.

    I think that majority of you are right, there is more posotive here than negative. I am really greatful for that. Thanks to those who are here, and help support each other everyday. I am a first timer, and I know I will have a lot of questions maybe even stupid ones. !! :)

    I agree. Well said.

    Just keep on being supportive and let the snarks do their thing. Snarky, rude comments don't help anyone, not even their snarky selves.

    Thank you for saying that!

    I was crushed when people said all this negative stuff and badgered me because of a question I posted.

    I yet still can eat lunch..  waiting for the day I don't feel sick and have a great fulfilling meal. Congrats to you!
