i have been on mylot for a few weeks now and i have found that i have really found some help here. not just in new sites etc but as life in general. i was just wondering have you found that mylot does help you? do you ever think taht you have really helped another person. well i can say alot of you have helped me and i am greatful for it. this site has alot of heart and caring peopel on it. sure we have a few bad eggs but all in all we have mainly really good people here. i know we cant always tell the person that has helped us that they did. but i for one like to try. i want to say thank you for your help mylotters and i hope along the way i have helped some of you as well. we may not all think the same way but we care and sometimes that is the most important thing to a person. i know i responded to a discussiont he other day that was really not a problem kind but it touched on something taht has been bothering me and well the discussion person picked up on that and went out of there way to make me feel better and give me some ideas and that was just a little extra they did but it really helped me and it made me feel relly good. i was just wondering how many of you have found help here and really think you have helped someone. and also just say thank you for it. you dont have to give names i didnt cause i dont want to single anyone out or hurt anyone else by not saying theres since there are so many of you. so to each and everyone one thank you cause you all make mylot a place i want to be.

I have found a lot of help here, and even been able to offer a little to others too. =)
I've discovered a lot of people from mylot who have been through a lot of the same things I have, and it's helped me in coping. I'va also found a lot of people on mylot who can teach me about things I don't know a lot about, and people who have offered advice to me. I've discovered that mylot has given me a place to rant sometimes, a place to connect with others, and a place to get new perspectives on situations.
I have helped a few people on mylot, in providing information about something they didn't know about, directing them to proper authorities about an issue, and even donating money to charitable causes they were working on.

I think the best thing about mylot is a community of users who really want to help one another through bad things and tough times.

I have found a release for my need to give information and I have also found that I have been helped in some instances where I was wondering if I were doing the right thing. I love to give help where I can. I want to make up for some of the things I did when I was younger.

I shall pass through this world but once. Any good therefore that I can do, or any kindness that I can show to any human being, let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again.
I've learned some things here too girl. I only hope I given back as much as I get.

I have the same idea with you. Since I came here several weeks ago, I found it's a worthwhile to be here, not only for the money, but for ideas. Members here all come from different places, with different personalities, knowledge, minds. To exchange ideas here is of great advantage. As for a foreigner, it might enrich his or her culture knowledge for a certain country. As for those who asking for help, Mylotters are so warm-hearted to show their care. Though I've never asked for help here, I do find how those asking for help are satisfied, cause their problems receive great response.
Now, no matter how busy I am, I'll try to spare 1 hour here, posting and reading people's ideas. Best wishes to all mylotters.

I am very similar to your views. I have only been on Mylot for a short while. I was doing it for money but soon realised that is was such fun too. I have met some wonderful, like-minded people; have tried to help some (I hope I did); and been helped myself by the comments received. It really does boost the spirits. The only trouble is I keep having to go and do other things - I will get thin as I don't have time to eat but although I stay up far too late I do have to give in and go to sleep sometimes (not to mention work and housework) !!!

Mylot is a wonderful resource, you can get answers to many life riddles ranging from health, money making, science and technology to religion and sexuality! One of the greatest lesson I learnt recently is that you need to discuss issues of Homoseuality with a lot of sensitivity. You see, I live in a country where Homosexuality does not receive any level of approval! So when I posted a discussion with this mindset, i realized from the responses i got that I was a bit insensitive to differences, I frankly think my attitude about gays is going to change-I will look at them with a new world view-like different but fellow human beings with full rights to do what is good for them!

I haven't really sought help here on mylot that much but I am sure if I had done so, I would had a lot people willing to help. As far as I am concerned, I always try to make a positive contribution to the discussions that I participate in, no matter how big or small that contribution may be.

After a days work i am always alone and i have nobody to share my development, success or even frustrations for that day and this is where mylot had helped me. I can be with somebody and that somebody is the mylot family. Now i don't feel alone, i felt that i am always with people who has brains, who always willing to share what they got in any way they can. I can see that almost all people here are friendly and knows how to respect each other. This is what we call a real family. If they won't agree with somebody's post then they can say it in a way that can't hurt. Soooo those are the things that mylot had helped me.... and before i forgot i also had been helped to have an extra amount that i can spend with. thanks mylot and thank you all people who are here. Let us continue to grow and share what we can. God bless us all!

I've been here for a little while now and can honestly say that I have found some wonderful people on here. The help and support I have received has been amazing and the discussions and day to day chatter is great. I have learnt a lot of new things and found a lot of new friends too.

easymoney ~ I too feel that there are some really great people on here. I have read so many great discussions on here. There are some that have actually brought tears to my eyes. Not to be corny or anything. It is just the truth. ;0) So many people talk about so many different things, and most of them at some point will go out of their way to try and reach out and touch someone in some kind of personal way.
And I for one think it is a great thing. I try to do so when I can. I don't want to step on people's toes, and overstep bounds, so I try to be careful in what I say. But if I really feel like I can help that person by offering some sound advice then I will most definitely do so. I don't see why I shouldn't. We have all been through some tough times in our lives and needed some help. Why shouldn't we try to give some help when we can?
I believe in Kharma in a way. What goes around comes around and what you put out there will come back to you in the end. And even if it doesn't I will walk away from the encounter feeling like I did something for someone else that was good, kind, and decent. ;0)
Sorry to be so long winded. lol This discussion kind of touched a nerve because there are so many people on here ragging on everyone else that they just don't stop to think that there are a lot of other people on here that are trying to find help and solace for their problems. And there are a lot of other people on here that are trying to give their help to them self-same people. It is just frustrating.
Hope you have a good day and thank you for the great discussion!

Yes, I have. I got some good information when I thought I was having a bout of food poisoning.
I was also reminded how (from a fellow Dubliner who is at Mylot) we can't allow a few bad apples locally to spoil how we feel about our community, and that we certainly shouldn't let them change how we live.

Yes I have found real help here on mylot, and I love it I have had a lot to do with my health, my family and I have found a lot of support to get me through these hard times and also the times for rejoicing and I have also learnt a lot it is incredible really what you can learn from others, as well as what I could help them to understand their own lives and also to feel that when they are going through bad times that they also have a lot of supporting friends I believe that when you are not alone that you can accomplish more than thinking that you are all by yourself.
