Dear wakewoke

Welcome to the forum. This is a caring community with experience in the many facets of mental ill health.

Your post would reach more people if you started a new thread in on of the forums. e.g. depression, PTSD, suicidal thoughts, young people. Have a look through the forums and decide which one matches the issues you want to discuss. Read some of the threads and perhaps join in the conversation.

Then when you have made your choice start a new thread and tell us about yourself. That way you will have all replies in one place rather than the need to hunt through the orientation forum.

I look forward to hearing more about you.

Mary

Go to the first forums page and read the list of forums. You may want to read a few to see what others have written. Select the forum that best reflects your situation and start a new thread in the same way you started this thread, except of course it will be in a different forum.

Once you have written your first post in the new thread you may want to add a note to your original thread in Orientation to say you are now writing in ........... forum. That way responders can address your specific topic.
