Stuff has happened on other threads which has left me upset and scarred. If you want to keep in touch PM me with an email address or fb name xx

That's a shame. You could try name-changing? I do get paranoid about things, including the internet, a LOT. I once defriended lots of facebook friends as i thought the CIA were after me. Luckily they all accepted my requests again.. i just pretended i deleted them by mistake.
Remember that on the internet it's just people with keyboards who often say things that they may not say in RL at all. They often don't mean to upset or offend you - or if they do then it's just your anonymous name that they insult - not YOU.

Do PM if you like.
Take care of yourself x

It's awful what's been going on, have followed it from a distance and refrained from joining in as would probably get jolly cross :( I'm so sorry.

ThatllDoPig · 22/06/2012 12:33

I don't know what is being referred to. I must have missed something. Hope there are some positive, funny, life affirming, interesting experiences you've had on here too.

FurCough · 22/06/2012 12:38

On madmouse, I'm truly sorry to hear that. I've not seen any other threads but just wanted to say that your support and advice was so helpful to me when I was in The Bad Place. Awful that something has happened on here that's made you want to go :(

TantrumsAndBalloons · 22/06/2012 12:41

Mad mouse I have been on those threads.

It's shocking tbh, and I'm sad that it's made you feel you have to leave.

I can understand why.

Thumbwitch · 22/06/2012 12:43

Really sorry that you are leaving, Madmouse - hope you reconsider and come back. I know it's been shit, but you'll be missed.

In the meantime, take care of yourself lovely xx

landofsoapandglory · 22/06/2012 12:45

Sorry you are leaving MadMouse. I think I have you on fb already. It is bloody disgusting what has been going on.Angry

Showtime · 22/06/2012 13:10

Sorry you plan to leave madmouse - you'll be sadly missed- but of course still very welcome to join us to sit quietly in the cybergarden, possibly while mouseling rackets around with our increasing menagerie. Best.

By the way I'm only posting this to let the regulars know. Not to rehash what has caused my decision. So I won't elaborate if that's ok.

Take care x

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 22/06/2012 13:30

Madmouse I hope you see my post on the other toxic thread but please know you will be missed and I hope you will come back after a break. I lurk like crazy on the MH boards and I'll say it again - you will be missed.

xx

TheGruffalosbitch · 22/06/2012 13:35

From another person u have also helped please reconsider x

CatsSleepAnywhere · 22/06/2012 15:03

madmouse I hope you don't leave. You will be missed! Sad Don't let what happens on another thread make you feel like you want to leave. You are very supportive of others on here and always give good advice.

cats if it was just what happened on other threads I would ignore those other threads. It's MNHQ I cannot reconcile myself with.

NanaNina · 22/06/2012 15:48

Oh Madmouse I never dreamt it was you that was going. I am so so sorry - you have been invaluable on the MH threads and it is awful that all your wisdom and experience will no longer be available. Is there any way that we can support you with the MNHQ business, whatever that is. NNxx

MrsMuddyPuddles · 22/06/2012 15:56

Hi, just wanted to say thanks for the good advice and support you've offered. Sorry to see you go, I'll miss you :(

amillionyears · 22/06/2012 15:56

Take a break madmouse.You can always come back with this name or another.I have only been posting on MN this year.it took me a few months to see what MNHQ is really like and about.I read up some of the stuff that has been in the media about Justine and what she has written on here and elsewhere.
I am staying for now if I am not kicked off! by MNHQ.
I always bear in mind what their agenda is like,like I do with other organisations I work with and have dealings with.It then becomes a personal matter of whether to stay involved or not.
I always tend to look at the top of any organisation as this is where the real decisions are made,which then trickle down.
And good luck to you and your family xxx

BeckyBendyLegs · 22/06/2012 18:12

:(

BeckyBendyLegs · 22/06/2012 18:20

Don't let them beat you :( You are worth much, much more.

ThatllDoPig · 22/06/2012 18:44

What do you mean amillionyears what is MNHQ really about then? I'm genuinely curious.

Sad Using my old name so you'll be sure who I am.

I don't have the words to say how sad I am at this, but not surprised.

And can I thank you for even trying with that last thread - yet another generous and brave thing you've done for others, among all the incredible things you've done here.

Lots of heartfelt wishes to you and the family. ThanksThanksThanks
