I am writing during my grief and I get maybe 1 comment per journal, why am I sharing here if there is no support? This is real life, I am hoping to help someone going through what I have been through and no support.  I recently read a journal, that was just drama, and she had more comments that I have had in my heart felt journals.  My friends are leaving here for another sight that offers more support.  Now what do you think?

It is really hard to find friends to support you on here as drama post tend to get more "face time" since they are made popular so quickly.  I have found really supportive ladies in small groups, not so much in the journal posts.

I hope you are able to find support, no matter where it is.  Grief is something that is hard to go through with support and nearly impossible alone.

Im with ya.  If your not a regular "Popular Poster" you tend to get no comments at all.  So whats the point.  Its to bad that the lil popular click on here cant take the time to at least look over someone elses post.  Good luck finding the help you so desire

im sorryI totally agree with you....the drama posts seem to be the "popular" and the most commented...the ones that get pushed aside are the ones who cry out to us for support.  I hope you find what you need at the other site, but if you need an ear here I'm listening!!!

As everyone said, the drama gets the most responses.  I do not always post comments to journal posts, and if I dont', it does not mean that I did not like it.  So I am posting here for you.  Wish you the best and sorry that you are wanting to leave Cafemom.  Like another mom said, sometimes the smaller groups that you join can give you a lot of support.  Maybe create your own group and limit it to those you want support from!  Just a thought!

I agree with them. I find that if you post in the Newcomers club there is more replies and if you happen to post in the Marriage and Relationships post too but I got out of that group....and I dont remember why anymore.
