It's time to cut the lifeline..To break free and spread my wings

I have been a member of this online community for the past 2 years of my life. It has has been most supportive in my recovery with mental illness but I have found recently that this site no longer has anything to offer me.And the recent ongoing bickering has only comfirmed that..
I know that I will walk away from this site with not only the friendships that I have made but knowing that I have become a stronger person over the past 2 yrs and I'm able to read back through all my entries and realise how far I have really come.And for those that actually care,its been just over 6 months since I last self harmed..I actually made it to my goal!!
I have stayed far away from all the arguments and torment going on here and find it utterly childish,ridiculos and disturbing.Without this site, well I hate to think where I could be right now. And I don't like to think of this site not being around to support the people in need.
At the end of the day,we are all here for ONE reason.. We need help.. None of us are perfect,therefore not one of us is any more superior than the next...But it has got to the point where I can no longer sit back and say that I am part of this website,where I once felt like the members were a part of my extended family, when people I care for dearly are hurt by bitter and untrue accusations based on emotion rather than fact..People come here for support and just generally looking at things,people in the last week or two are writing for support but everyone is too caught up bitching and fighting that those in need are being ignored.
Good luck everyone. If you loose sight of the reality of this website,go back through the etiquette and remind yourself why this site exists..
May you all find inner peace..And shall we all meet again in some other time.
Take care.
