Apologies in advance for the really looong post, well long for me anyways... but I feel it needs to be said, it's heartfelt and with the best intentions so if I do cause offense then accept my sincere apologies for that as well.

I've been playing MMO's for quite a long time now, and I'm probably old enough to be a Mum to most of you (yes I AM gonna probably sound like your mother lol). I've seen too many younger people run themselves ragged trying to be the utmost best they can be, I've also met a fair few young gamers who suffer from various mental health and/or physical issues.. to be honest it makes me very sad to hear some of the stuff you guys been through, and see myself when I was younger, I didn't get the right sort of help I needed.

I have now thank goodness *thumbs up* so I'm gonna pass on some of what I learnt, with help from experience and good people I've met in my life.

1. Look after your mental health first, if you're strong in heart and mind you can take anything that's thrown at you, get the right support for the love of god, FIGHT for it, you have the right to it.

2. It's great you push yourself to be the best But you gotta know when it's time to let it go.. take a break, do something silly that makes you laugh.. you will burn yourself out and that will trigger depression, anxiety.. but I think most of you know that already

3. You don't need anyone's approval or permission to know your self worth, trust yourself you can do better, and stop being so hard on your selves (yes I'm not just talking to Kaiva ) I mean it, don't make me come over there >.>

Ok, enough from me, I'm out, enough nagging
