not on here often enough

Fousing on 14 different communities.

indirectly told my employment centre, I’m not focusing on them either. Mostly communities on Instagram because they are local to where I live and effect me the most daily.

Names - really bad with names and history. Locally names are just important. On this site history.

Also if someone can say it better than me. Is it smart just to like their comment, rather than commenting on my own and potentially hurting a person in a different country?

Hi

just a suggestion but maybe decrease your communities. Bring over stimulated can be too much.

Names are a tough one for me also.

I think you can do whatever you feel comfortable with as far as commenting or liking things. If something is directed to you a simple " thank you" is sufficient,

Those are my thoughts

Hi

Some people need to hear it. Or they will do it to someone else. Don’t treat me like that is what I’m starting to do with people - in real life as well. Silence I notice works with people who are lonely and passive aggressive.

I like having options, for me a different side of the personality comes out from different communities. Sometimes it’s the same side.

There are 20 Dolphins in this group I think you started a trend.

They're true on the different communities. Being someplace for a different reason is going to bring out a different part of you.

I guess we just do what we are comfortable with and try not to upset anyone.

There is quite a 🐬 pod here lol. I put mine in with my number and floated around and saw more 🐬. Some here longer than me:)

if being in so many communities is overwhelming you then maybe cutting down to a few that you can relate to.

My memory for names and the appropriate words is bad. There was a country singer that stuttered when he talked so he would make this hand gesture when he got stuck. I have adopted that gesture and my husband laughs and says the words I’m looking for. It has eased my anxiety about it.

Do what you feel is best as far as responding to posts. I sometimes just like a post when others have addressed the topic as I would. I don’t think you would hurt anyone if you respond to your own post, unless you’re being downright rude or something. I have never seen you to be that way. Interacting with others is what this forum is all about.

Dolphin14 has a point. I was reading a book on cutting down social media. (Stick to the platforms where you show your best self) was what it was saying.

So online are 2 groups and in person, I haven’t done the greatest things but I’m now calling people out for their behaviour as well. Which a lot don’t like. There are groups where I have to “work it through” I’ve made mistakes and so have they.

Okay a hand gesture is classy and I wish I could get married.
