This is such a beautiful community & in the short time I’ve been here, I’ve been encouraged & welcomed & supported.

And what a blessing that has been for my process of healing.

People come here in their darkest & most vulnerable moments, bravely reaching out & connecting.

Please remember to be gentle with responses & comments.

Harsh, blind judgements are better suited for somewhere else.

I completely agree. I would like to add that, in the end, we are only in control of ourselves. The shoulds and oughts of expectation are some of the most common irrational thoughts. So judgement of posts and comments can be very costly.

If you see irresponsible comments, please try to put it off as the problem of the poster. This is a function of response vs react. I choose how I view everything that I read, and sometimes I choose to reject ignorance. It is not my responsibility to take everything personally, especially in an online format.

This is just some skills that people with anxiety and depression need to work on. We are not normal, we are more sensitive to injustice. We need to edit our world to serve us better.
