and i just posted this here because i stumbled across this website when i was researching nphc's on like, google or something. i didn't actually even look through the different forums or whatever, i just picked the one that had the most viewers and posted there in hopes of a helpful response.
and i'm interested because i've talked to a some members of different groups here and they seem awesome. is that a bad reason to initially be interested in an org? isn't that the idea that the people in your org are awesome and you make other people want to find out what else you're about? i can't claim to, nor have i claimed to be all-knowing in the area of nphcs and different organizations, or even freaking web forums.
annnd i don't understand what's so skeptical about someone who asks a question. i mean, did it sound like a fake question? it wasn't even that long. there wasn't even enough material in my original question to constitute any alterior motive at all. it was pretty much "i have anxiety, will people hate me?" and i honestly don't even know what any alterior motive could have been in regards to a question like that.
but sure, be skeptical people. i could be crazy. i asked a question! obviously i'm out to bring all of you down...with a question.

look...I am so not a bleeding heart most of the time, so maybe it's because I work in mental health and know how real these issues can be, but I believe that you really just asked a question that you were concerned about in your first post...unfortunately, alot of a$$wipes come around here just to start trouble so members of orgs are often skeptical of posters....now because your tone in your post has changed to frustation thats going to start a whole nother $hitstorm...thats just the "is what it is" of GC...there are a couple of people in the thread who said to PM them if you wanted to...use those invitations and you can add my name to that list....remember that your community service and academics are more important than anything else...good luck in your endeavors...
oh yeah, and if there is anyone who you can trust and have access to who is in a NPHC org i.e. teachers, ministers, neighbors, start your quest there...
