Ennoshima Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 I'm new to the forums, and I've mentioned my reasoning on my profile for being here. Though, I don't mind saying here as well! I'm a mute with social anxiety, and during these tough times, being locked up in a house all day is making me feel insanely trapped. So, I thought why not try to conquer both with signing up to a forum, mostly when others share a same interest/love as you? (Neopets). I'll try my best to reply to any ASAP, and thank you for having me here! aaml and ClockNotWork 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jellysundae Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Hi, welcome! Good for you for getting proactive with dealing with what life's throwing at you right now! I feel it's just no comfort at all to know that millions are in the same boat, no matter how much I tell myself this. Neopets definitely offers an escape though.

I totally agree with finding no comfort. >.< Really hoping this is over sooner than later. Neopets has been my escape again for awhile, even if I had to make a new account, but that's totally ok to me. Just happy to be back on Neopets!

ClockNotWork Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Welcome! It's always nice to see people coming back to neopets for whatever reason. At the beginning of the Quarantine I made a post about it on facebook to try to get new people into it for something to do. Neopets gives hours of endless entertainment that I figure might be helpful to some. Feel free to friend me on neopets if you like. I'm always on, mostly in the mornings EST.

Duma Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Welcome to the forums! I'm glad you found the courage to make an account and post! I too hope this pandemic will be under control soon enough. I just want things to go back to, at least semi, normal. I want my routines back, just like most people I suppose. Anyway, I hope you'll enjoy neopets and this forum and will feel a little less trapped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's something him and I bonded over, he always had an open-mind when I'd introduce him to things I liked. I've been using it even more now since the whole quarantine thing, and I'll be sure to add you in a short while! I'm PST at the moment, got trapped on the opposite coast akin to where I'm used to. Though; my sleeping schedule is quite whack. Thank you for the welcome! 3 hours ago, Duma said: Thank you! It was a lil hard for me, and still trying my best to be more social! I found starting here would be best, since I know most of the community would be welcoming and nice. ♥ I feel exactly the same, and it's not even in a selfish way, of course. We all want things to be normal, or as normal as they were. Thank you again for the kind welcome! 1 hour ago, alohadiscordia said: Thank you! :3 Gotta love social anxiety, always preventing us from doing what we really want to do a lot of the time.
