Input On Groups & Events in 2024

Input On Groups & Events in 2024

Hi Everyone,

As we enter into a new year and start looking at all the possibilities for group discussions and events in the year ahead, we wanted to get your input too!

  • Are there any particular topics you would like to see explored through a group discussion in 2024?
  • Are there any topics that might've previously been covered you'd like to revisit? If so, is there anything in particular about the topic you wanted to explore more?

If you'd prefer your input be anonymous, you can submit your suggestions/ requests via the anonymous form here 😊 (a little down the page)

Hello @TideisTurning 🙂

Thinking of all the carers out there in forumland @Healandlove , @Determined , @Krishna , @Jacques , @Mother1 , @Smc , @outlander and I know there is a lot of interwinding between the two

I like all the suggestions before

@NatureLover , @Gezza , @Meowmy

@Shaz51 @TideisTurning , I think a session on how to set boundaries with those you love and support but whose mental health challenges also impact your mental health. As a support person of someone with cptsd I need more help in shielding myself and my kids. Would love a discussion on strategies.

Also a discussion on grief and loss and how to carry what can't be fixed.

🙏🏻

Re: Input On Groups & Events in 2024

These are great suggestions @Healandlove

Will tag @tyme , @Jynx and @amber22

And maybe we can start a thread about it too 🤔

Another thread is 8 Dimensions of Wellness if you like to click on it to have a look

@TideisTurning

I agree with @Zoe7 @Former-Member

Goal setting would be so helpful. I know in the past that I have felt so hopeless that I didn’t believe I had a future so just the idea of goal setting seemed impossible. Would love to see something on S.M.A.R.T.E.R goals, both short term and long term.

Re: Input On Groups & Events in 2024

@Healandlove think those types of things would have help me as carer of my late husband during his last few months of life due to cancer, period of time where I had no support.

@TideisTurning thinking about those who are carers

- carer burnout

- grief

In response to: Re: Input On Groups & Events in 2024

Re: Input On Groups & Events in 2024

@Former-Member , I am so sorry for the loss of your husband dear friend. 😢 Definitely the burnout and grief are big ones. I have these almost unbearable waves of deep saddenes, grief and loss that consume at moments. We need all the support and self care we can get.
