And I just realized the value of self-inserts

Edit: Adding some more at the end of the Journal~ few more thoughts. <3

As a Person who always looked up to balanced creations with well-thought out characters I was like "Eww self-insert = Mary Sue".
That might even be the case but i realized something is going with that. People who do create These characters are placing themselves in their own world, as the here, to feel safe.
As a Person with anxiety I daydream a lot, be the hero, live in my own world but I never published, drew or wrote about it.
People don't want overpowered characters, who ca get every guy in the world. But to the creaters it gives so much more than just having created a character who Looks like them. They created a safespace.
A Person they can turn into when they Need to, to gain confidence and even if it's just for a while.

You may say it is "dumb" of These People to publish it in the Internet, but what is wrong with showing what you created? It is insanely hard to open up and leave the thoughts written on paper or published in the Internet.
And yeah if there is a 13 year old Girl who is super powerful and could have every guy from akatsuki! Of course as a Naruto-nerd I'd roll my eyes but it gives this Little Girl some power. Power she might not have in real life because she is bullied, or abused or she is currently dealing with something like this. (And this is not implementing that only 13 year old Girls are dealing with this, you can be 25 and have Troubles like These)

Instead of bashing them, telling them how sucky their characters are just ignore it. If you don't want to give Attention or can't find any positive Thing to say, don't say anything at all. Don't ake away those people's safespace. The Internet is generally an unsafe place, also for such things, so if People would just think a Moment and give People the Chance to write/draw what ever the fuck they want to without being critizised because of the "poorly written" character it would give us all less stress, less anxiety about Publishing such things.

I don't say you have to like it (and hell if you think you don't even want to accept it then i can't Change you mind e-o) But maybe give those People a Chance and maybe consider that they're dealing with something. They don't Need your shyt, they only want their own safe place. And I can say writing or drawing all your thoughts about you self-inserts and the adventures is insanely good. It is much better than daydreaming because you can Keep the thoughts and think:
Wow I have grown so far with this Story I dealt with those issues.

Just give everyone a Little acceptance okay? <3

_{I prolly won't reply to this cuz I am a lazy Little moth who wants to sleep now u v u}

Update 5/7/2014
It seems to be insanely hard for some People to realize how much this Little "dreamworld" might be worth for those persons.
I know, if I hadn't escaped with something like this (and I did, and i felt ashmed about it. I realized I should not!), I possibly would have harmed myself. This includes cutting, other self-harm to Forget about the pain.
Self-Inserts do nothing else, they let you Forget about the pain but if you have a Little bit of common sense you will realize how much healthier and better self-inserts are than harming yourself.
I won't say both together doesn't exist, I am sue that's not the case but I want People to consider that, it actually could save someone.

And having an self-insert bashed and insulted is like they Insult you. (It is in case similar with OCs -your creations and Babys- as well, btw). It hurts. It's like this Person doesn't like you when you feel strong and powerful and you ask yourself: If they don't even like me like that, they won't ever like my true self because it is so pityful (and yes this is worded this negative because I relate here to myself, happened to me)

So just accepting/respecting even if you personally don't like it (which is completly okay) makes some People much healthier <3

Just wanted to use this example after thinking it was too grafic but I decided to do it now anyways x: Thanks for the great Response so far too and for all the faves~

I hope it makes you feel better about yourself and your personal self-insert or that you maybe learn to understand how great self-inserts can be <3
Either way i'm out u v u
