I am a BIG Rarity fan. I am also one of the biggest Gamers you will ever meet. My favorite MLP FIM episode is a tie between A Friend In Deed and A Dog and Pony Show.

T

Pinkie is not always the easiest pony to be around, with her maniac energy and crazy outbursts, but she means well, and she loves her friends dearly. What her friends don't know, is how sensitive Pinkie really is. When Pinkie hears her friends talking about her, the resulting breakdown is one that Pinkie may never recover from.

This was inspired by my own personal feelings that I was dealing with when I wrote this. The cover art even more so.

Finally, now I wait for the next chapter.

2108181 YES! I love the fish slaps!

What do you think of this?

2108257 Thanks. I feel better, having wrote this.

Coudtop... I love you man but you cant be doing this stuff come on. :applejackunsure:

Touching little boys with latex gloves I see :moustache:

I like the story! ...though I don't like the idea of anyone going through this. Have faith in yourself, things get better!:pinkiehappy: (and ponies can fix broken hearts and your world, take my word for it:twilightsmile:)
-Fixie

I demand a sad tag. NAOW.

Poor Pinkie. Could it be that all anypony wants to show us is her manic side?

I'm playing the Been There, Felt That card and following this one through to what I hope is a happy ending.

I bought into it, and I was satisfied.

As in six weeks' institutionalization for stepping too close to the precipice, after which I was turned loose on the street for lack of legal authority to keep me.

I'm pretty much past that now. (It's been a quarter of a century.) But I yield the floor, since I don't think I'd be able to derive a good story from my own misadventures.

Touching story, I'm looking forward to see where this is going :twilightsmile:

I. WAS. RIGHT.
I haven't lost my touch :rainbowlaugh:

Doesn't take much to completely destroy Pinkie Pie's psyche, does it?:trixieshiftright::pinkiecrazy:
Btw, love it, liked and faved :pinkiesmile:

This was extremely well written. I hate to imagine you going through this type of stuff, dude, but I swear, it gets better. You've always got friends to back you up.

Not to mention you've got your PINKIE PIE self on your side, so you can just Giggle the sadness away!:pinkiehappy:

Damn....this is tragic, was honestly expecting for Pinkie to kill herself, harsh but truth....damn. You did a very, very great job on this, shit...I'll keep up with this story, wow.:pinkiesad2:

2108765
Hush, we rush edited it. Maybe if you weren't grounded you could have helped. :trollestia:

i've been there before, man. good story. keep it up.

This story is one of those stories i WANT to like, but really can't. You just stole the plot of "party of one", made the problem more severe and exaggerated pinkies reaction by waaaay too much. And all the others of the mane six feels out of character.

I'll track it to see where it goes.

2111214 I agree that he reworked the plot of "Party of One", or if nothing else heavily borrowed from it. I do agree that the mane six seem out of character, but I'm assuming that's for literary purposes. However, I don't think that Pinkie's reaction was way too much, not at all. Her entire world has literally just been ripped apart around her. Imagine for a moment that whatever it is you live for were suddenly and violently ripped from your life? What would your reaction be?

@TheCloudtop:
This was rather deep and well done, albeit short. I am unsure what to take away from this at this moment, whether to be sad, or angry, or what...? So I guess what I'm trying to say is this...
Time does not heal all things, but it certainly numbs the pain.
Please don't stop writing, or living...

2112700 yes, i fully agree with you on her reaction being natural, but also think that it is hugely exaggerated. no eating for 30 days? sitting still for 30 days? because of what reason? she overheard her friends say that she has had a few more parties than they'd like and she is too clingy? (wasn't both of these problems resolved in "party of one"/"too many pinkie pies"?) they even said

“I don’t know about you girls, but I have grown quite weary of Pinkie lately. She is just so overbearing at times, it’s exhausting. I know she means well, but would it be too much to ask for her to tone it down a little?

The only real problem here is twilight, but one pony saying you might have a mental problem does not amount to the kind of reaction she ends up having.

the only way i can see this story work out is to change either
the dialogue pinkie overhears (twilight is way to harsh, and why would they come to a party when none of them wanted to go?)
the reaction to somewhere reasonable (3-7 days) OR make it less severe (along the lines of just being depressed and distant and not acknowledging ponies)

I like this. It progressed nicely, although the caps lock and change in text size is not correct with grammar.

2117779 Glad you liked it.:pinkiesmile:

I did say that this is not meant to be grammatically correct though.:trixieshiftright:

Balls to grammar.
I don't know whether to be more or less worried because of this.

2117837 What about me? This is what I would do, if it were not for the fact that I make the choice everyday to continue on in life.

2117844
Exactly. I've been on that side of the Dark Monster. I know the urge to just give in and surrender.
Thus I worry.

2117860 If I were going to give up, I would have done that long ago.

According to the books I read, she could also have some sort of mental retardation problem as well.

i would like to see a story where she actually is portrayed as having some sort of brain damage/defect that makes her so childish

The thing that I want anyone reading this to take from this fic is very simple, yet extremely powerful. There is always a price to be paid for the choices we make. Nothing is with a cost, and the cost of some things, once paid, can never be reclaimed.

that aside
i like stories that end with no light at the end of the tunnel
good job
i'm adding this to Misery, Misery, Misery also

2117882 How does this in any way imply suicide?

2117883 Thanks for that.:twilightoops: Fixed now.:pinkiesmile:

I am glad that you like this. If there is one thing that this accomplishes, besides being an outlet for me, I want this to touch someone.

2117898

If I were going to give up,

To me, that implies suicide.

2117904 You can give up on life, without ever killing your physical body.

A scarily realistic story. Very well portrayed, described, and imaged.

2117907
Of course you can, that's why I said suicide is for the weak. You can be strong when you've given up.

Also, irrelevant GIF.

2117916 Now, think about this. This is what goes on in the deepest parts of myself, everyday.

2117922
this i can relate too. I know how hard it is and painful.

That was a good story. I like how you made it, and it became even more powerful for you used your own feelings. Why ain't this featured?

2117919 I like that GIF.

Thankfully, I have never given up, nor will I ever do so.

2117929 Life is all about choices. I choose to live in the fullness of life, the good and the bad.

2117942
good. Because as tempting as it is to give up, it just makes everything worse

2117950 Are you trying to give me diabetes?:scootangel:

2117931 Don't know.

2117951 I grew up watching people around me live life in auto. That is something that I will never do.
