Hi - I've just joined this support group, but don't exactly know how to interact. I'm looking to connect with members who are struggling with social isolation/ADD/depression and would like to share coping mechanisms, as well as people who just want to listen and be listened to. I'm hoping to gain perspective on my problems through sharing experiences with others. Also if you thing this is not the appropriate forum for me please let me know. I have never been in a support group before. Thank you.

Hello, I too just joined and am wondering the same thing. I suffer from anxiety, mostly social anxiety, and as a result I often feel isolated and lonely. I am not exactly sure how to connect on this forum but hoping something good comes of it.

Welcome

You are in the right place. Thank you for introducing yourself. I found the best way to start was by scrolling through the posts and finding something I could relate to based on experience. Then I could join in discussion.

It's been a very helpful community for me. I hope you find it to be the same.
