i'm sosososo glad i checked this thread tonight and i'm so incredibly happy to hear that rapta is okay and will be returning to us soon.

I hope when you read through this thread, rapta, that you realize you are not alone in this world. We're all here for you, even when it feels like no one else is. I know that's sometimes not enough to keep from feeling alone in the world, but we're here for you. and we always will be.

Excellent.

Lava, idk if you do, but please try not to feel guilty or bad that you weren't there. No one is to blame. In fact, you have already done a great job just by being able to tell us he is fine. I am sure you are a great friend and have done everything you can. Just don't feel bad about "not doing enough", because that is a fallacy; we do what we can. We all deal with stress in different ways, some handle it easier than others, and that's no one's fault. Also don't feel bad if you feel really fucking stressed out right now and need to take a breather. Just, thank you so much.

Edit: Btw, Rapta, it breaks my heart to see that you're only [Information Removed], especially because we are the same age, and seem to have similar thought processes. You might not be in a position where you want to talk to anybody right now, but whenever you're ready, I implore you to message anyone on here.

that makes a lot of sense actually, thanks for filling us in on that. also posters here/staff can probably sanitize their posts as well for any other info that might be saying too much.

i haven't posted here yet but i was on discord friday night just trying to do what i could - thank you so much for the uplifting update, and it's good to see everyone's efforts worked out to get help. and given that it's 3am for many of us i hope we can all sleep easier now. (remember to take care of yourselves too, everybody)

Thank goodness
I can't express how relieved I am that everything will be okay

I couldn't post on here that first night mostly due to shock and partly not knowing what to say

Just know that we're all here for you, we always will be
Thank you everyone who was able to give support or provide help in any way

Was deathly scared of what could have happened from the quietness in the thread (albeit I wasn't around for 80% of it because I have a bad tendency to not view forums).

Super happy to hear that you were able to get help in time, Rapta. Cheer's to hopefully a quick recovery.

What a relief.

This thread is about Rapta but this also goes out to anyone else in a similar position: If you have the power to view this message you aren't alone. Love is around you. If you aren't getting what you need all that is needed from you is to reach out and communicate. Mind states can be altered dramatically in ways that can be hard to imagine in the moment.

And to the community: For every overdramatic oversensitive thread you see in the future just put things into perspective and remember this.

so is it safe to assume that Rapta wouldn't be returning if it wasn't for this thread?

Even despite the whole "FFR is dying" idea that's somewhat pervasive on here, you guys and this community literally saved a life [removed information]. That's really special. And I don't remember seeing this kind of outpouring of love and worry and concern anywhere from any other internet community that I'm a part of.

Rapta, I don't really know you, but I'm really happy you're alive

Thank you so much for telling us he's alive and well, lavadoom. You do well, yourself and take care of Rapta as he recovers. A life changing moment is always better with friends and family.

As for extra information that people have requested. (I'll say what I can without getting out personal information via request of Rapta's family)

More than one of the ambulances reached his house. The reason you were unable to find anything about the hospital is that he is a minor. I have full confirmation Rapta will be returning to us shortly. Thank you again to everyone, It really means a lot to me personally that you guys were there for him when I couldn't be.. Thank you...
First off, thanks for the clarification on his age -- the only information we could go by was his registration information which was inaccurate.

Secondly, this community did an incredible job with the limited information it had in assisting Rapta. You all should be proud of yourselves.

I'd also like to commend Rapta for having the strength to post this thread. It means a lot to us that he offered himself a chance despite his state of mind at the time.

I'm so glad to hear that Rapta's alright... I actually cried when I read this after I woke up today.

Well done, everyone.
