I am finding navigating Sane really difficult. There is Forums with different options or topics. It's hard to follow threads. I don't know how to do this & it is really stressing me out. What is the Saturday Soiree - that's what I am trying to find

Hey @Ginsmart ,
I hear you! When I first started using the forums, I was a bit stumped too!
The best way to is look at your notifications. At the top right, near your profile, there is the word "NEW". This will show when you have been tagged and when people have supported your posts.
Another way is to type "Saturday Soiree" in the forums search bar at the top. This will link you to the thread. This is a thread for people to 'hang out' on Saturdays. The first member there usually tags other members on Saturdays to join and chat. Sometimes, it goes beyond a Saturday, and that's okay too!
Hope this helps!
If you have other questions, please reach out to us 🙂

Welcome to the forum ... there are all sorts of ways to interact on the forum. Many threads are on MH topics but often from a personal point of view. Then there are more obvious social threads ... you can also start a thread of your own ... with "New Discussion" tab as you did here ... It has grown a lot since I began so maybe is overwhelming.
Re Saturday Soiree ... it is pretty relaxed usually... but I had a serious convo with a forumite I have known a while. Sorry if it took up too much space. Some of us are a bit flexible about time continuing the thread of our conversation beyond the day. There is often a Friday Feast thread and the Good Morning thread ... as well as Introduction thread.
Dont worry too much, say hello where you feel ... Sometimes threads get lost ... in the big jumble ... tagging people by pressing @ button @tyme ... if it is blue it usually is found in personal notifications ...
