I thought I'd start a discussion where we can check in with members and use this space to keep in contact. It's a space to be able to say how you really feel and it's a space for the good, the bad and the ugly moments in our lives.

@Mazarita You have no idea how much you love means to me.......it means so much and I so so appreciate it. All this love back to you .... it's knocking on the door to wrap itself around you ...........
Yes, I was blessed to being asked to begin at the beginning and have @NikNik as the head then......
Not that it matters but my original desire 4 years ago was that we all began a very positive supportive thread for people suffering mental ill health and other UNmet needs....and their carers..........I think that there might still be a few of us here....from the beginning..... I remember thinking that we needed to just keep it positive and only write gentle positive things........but it wouldn't have blossomed without these wonderful moderators........
You cam on a little after if I remember @Mazarita..... @Former-Member ..... @Jacques

I felt warm when you sent love to the door and wrapped it around me, and smiled, thank you, @PeppiPatty! 
I love too your original idea of keeping it positive, with gentle feelings. I came here about a year after you. You were very welcoming and I'm grateful. I remember you tagging me into Friday Feast. I was shy on the forum then, lol. True that the moderators do a great job. Gee we've typed a lot of words here since then!
