Happy New Year 2022

Happy New Year 2022

Well what can we say…WHAT A YEAR!!! I can imagine so many of us here will be happy to see the back of this year!

It certainly has been a year of ups and downs - and struggles but also rewards. We have had to deal with our own lives as well as the impact of restrictions, ever changing times and all the highs and lows going along with those. The one constant for many of us has been right here on the forums - so in keeping with our usual support of each other - no matter whether you celebrate the end of the year and look forward to bringing in a brand new year or not - join us all here today/tonight to say goodbye to 2021 and welcome in the new year with (hopefully) some fun, laughs, stories, conversation, music, photos (whatever you feel like contributing.

I will start - So often we get stuck on all the negative things so in the spirit of renewal and growth – what is a positive you can take from this year and move forward into the new year with?

For me it is the amazing friendships and support I have right here on the forums

Re: Happy New Year 2022

Good evening @Zoe7 and everyone here! This is my 2nd post as I've just lost what I wrote due to taking a New Years Eve photo😢! I didn't help that my cat Mitz just gave me a scare as we thought she'd escaped out unit only to find her curled up under my chair! Naughty Torti!

Anyway, I'd like to start by saying I've had a great year on the forums as a Community Guide and have loved being part of this special online community. I've learnt so much about mental health from other forum members and through my own hospital admission and I love how forumites are willing to offer support and advice on lots of different topics. I've personally loved the comradeship on the forums, especially when writing and talking about the trials of lockdowns (Hello Melbourne especially and Sydney!) and learning different coping strategies to deal with this pandemic. A huge congratulations and 👍🏻 goes out to every single forum member here as this has been a very interesting year especially for mental health in regards to coronavirus. You are each hero's in my eyes and deserve to be celebrated!

For me personally, I've loved celebrating forum members achievements and great things they do on the forums to make it such a great place to be each Thursday (within reason when I do it!) on the Thumbs up Thursday - Woohoo! discussion thread. It's great fun making people happy and rewarding them for their efforts, especially when they don't expect it and I really love this part of my role!
I've also loved participating in the Daily Achievements! discussion thread which I initially started to help me deal with my episodes of depression and having different forum members participate and record their daily achievements, no matter how big or small. I love seeing what is regarded as an achievement by different forum members and I'm enjoying celebrating each of their achievements and learning more about them. It adds to the conversation and makes a great talking point. Thanks to all members who have joined in on this discussion thread!

Let's keep this party coming! I hope you each have a great 2022 and I wish you each success in everything you do next year! Let's make the next year one worth celebrating and remembering here on the forums!
