Hello 👋🏻 one and all,

As per the above subject = I am a brand new member who just happened to stumble upon this support network so thank you to one and all from contributors to the moderating machine = TEAM ✊🏼

Obviously all new beginnings there is a settling in period of learning to navigate and understand and I feel that this forum is no different and I will try my hardest to be on my best behavior 😇 😂😂😂👍🏼🤗🌻

Personally, my life has been affected by mental health issues and I willingly admit and accept that I will forever be a work in progress.

Over the course of time some experiences are - Anti-depressants ✅ Psychiatrist ✅ Psychologists ✅ self harm or suicide attempts ❌ but thoughts of, the previously mentioned ✅

I feel joining this forum is beneficial for me to not feel alone with life’s challenges and struggles but also our own internally which we all have our own stories to share and help each other and one another.

 Thank you, 

‘And that’s the bottom line, ‘cause Stone-Cold said so !👊🏼

Welcome @Stone-Cold-3-16 I'm so glad you've found this community

I love that description of forever being a work in progress, that's so true for us all isn't it?

It is such a powerful thing to be able to share stories and let each other know that we're not alone in our experiences. I hope that during your time here you're able to feel comfortable to share more of your own story 😊

Hi and welcome! 😊

There's something about sharing our stories with each other that strengthens the human experience. Knowing we're not alone, that others share our ideas, our hopes and our fears is one of the best feelings when life is throwing lemons! 

Keep telling it like it is @Stone-Cold-3-16 🩵
