Hello Ceedotti. I also welcome you to the BB online Community.
As you indicate in your introduction, this is a two way street when it comes to receiving and giving support. A place where we and our peers support and encourage each other and, in doing so, we often develop some surprisingly close on-line friendships. I hope you find that to be the case, as I did. There are many very compassionate and understanding members here who are always willing to help a fellow MH sufferer if they can.
When you feel ready and confident enough to do so, I hope you'll post a little more about yourself. I personally suffer from PTSD and OCD, both of which are anxiety disorders. And also experience bouts of depression, which is common with PTSD.
The forums are a safe environment for members to discuss their personal experiences, their illnesses and their concerns. Posts are moderated to ensure that continues to be the case.
I hope to hear from you further and, once other members know a little more about you, they too are likely to jump on board to welcome you and offer advise and support where they can.
Please take a look around other sections of the Forums and have a browse of some of the sections relevant to yourself - eg Depression, Anxiety, PTSD & Trauma, Youth, etc. Feel free to reply to any other threads that you have an interest in, or have advice to add. Your input will always be most welcome.
I'd also suggest you take the time to drop into some of the BB Social Zone and Staying Well threads, as thats a great way to connect with other members.
See you around.
Sherie
