It certainly is not okay to ALWAYS depend on this site for help. I'd suggest getting help from actual people beside you who can guide you even better.

Well depending on this site or anyone is good as it helps us, but too much dependency on something never helps actually! So it's we who have to mark a line on how much we depend on someone to feel better, but not to be over dependent so that it we become a addicted to it which is harmful in a way to us and others too!

There is no harm in consulting anyone when you feel low, as long as you trust them and are ready to follow what they say. But, remember you are your best judge. Because, you know exactly what and why you are going through.

I don't think you should rely on it totally but think of it as a little boost :) Listeners are here to help but you won't completely recover here and no advice can be given so being dependant on it wouldn't be much good for yourself

Honestly, I don't think it is. I think we need time to ourselves to develop certain coping skills that we can use other than talking to people. If we're constantly engaged in conversation, we can get depleted, even if someone else is very positive. Sometimes we need time alone, even if it's painful. This helps us develop our character by relying on ourselves rather than always relying on others to lift us up.

Yes it's perfectly fine. It's what I did. I find it helpful since there are people here who understand you and some have been through the same as you but even if they haven't they still try to understand
