Just pointing out, that your wording about not bragging, made your message read as something else, than what you likely meant. Unintentionally failing at communication is a big issue online, and I often try to point out, where the miscommunication happened, so that can be avoided in the future. That does not save me too, from failing from time to time, though.

No hard feelings, I just try to convey things as best as I can and it’s a infinite learning process. That’s why I like it here at lemmy, it’s a place I can write about things I can’t bring myself to say in person. And I get that it’s a bit selfish.

I like lemmy too, since I can have interactions like this, where there is communication failure, but we can figure it out. Keep writing, it is not selfish! There are always people like me, who enjoy reading the comments :)

“There are always people like me, who enjoy reading the comments”
I like that, even if you disagree or point out my flaws; it’s all good. It’s why I left reddit. It’s refreshing to have someone point out things instead of just downboating you. I’ll admit, if you read through my comments, the first thought is–you’re full of shit, it doesn’t surprise me. I like to write here, like a diary, of my experiences in life because the older I get the more I realize how abnormal my life was–is.

This is essentially, why I try to do it. I think there would be a lot less miscommunication, and overall better discussion athmosphere, if people just stopped to say, “hey, you sound like [this], maybe you did not mean it”, instead of just downvoting - or worse, starting to hurl insults around. Nobody learns a thing, if there is no good feedback given. I know this sometimes just pisses people off, but I think it is still worth to try. Sometimes I get discussions like this one, afterall!
And I think I understand, what you mean with the difficulty, of conveying an unordinary life. I like to keep things more private here, but every time I explain the downward spiral of unfortunate things, and new and new chronic illnesses, my life has been so far, to someone, it sounds like a bad sitcom…
