Hello help

[Sam11]

So is anyone on here actually suffering? And looking for someone to talk to? All I can seem to find is people chatting about what they had for diner and how there trip to the hair dressers went. Anyone actually want to talk about mental illness, isolation. And make peer support to help with it?

I do @Sam11

That's a bit assumptive of you that it may be all that goes on here. Those people might be suffering and isolated too. Talking about their day may help. It's not all.about you on here. 

Perhaps adjust your attitude and you may get more peer support. 

I've been a member here for quite some time and have had incredible support. I hope you find the support you are after. 

Good luck.

Cool, sorry it's real late, but we should chat sometime.. about anything that's nothing us. I find listening and talking can be very helpful for your own mental health 🙂

I agree with you, screw generic bull. I don't want to get caught in the heavy tar of negative discussion but I think all of our goals are to share and be heard and understood. I think this platform is a great idea and I'm still figuring it out but you can talk to me if need be, I'd love to learn and build peer support around me

@Sam11 @Chaz1999  Welcome to the forums.

If you look around, you’ll find plenty of people struggling, and plenty of people supporting.

Its good to have you here. I hope you both find what you are looking for.
