Newbie's Social Club - Come make some friends!

Newbie's Social Club - Come make some friends!

Hey Forumites!!

This is a space for members new and old, to gather around and help make our newer members feel welcome!

We've all been newbies ourselves at some point, and can empathise with how incredibly daunting it can be entering a new space. A lot of folks have trouble even knowing where to start, and (even though we're in the midst of improving it all) we know the forums can be a tricky space to navigate - which can make it very difficult for newbies to be able to find their footing! On top of that, joining any established community means being 'the new kid on the block', and seeing others connecting easily with established relationships can sometimes feel like we aren't welcome, or that we need to 'break in' to the conversation somehow.

Well this space aims to alleviate that pressure and help facilitate some new connections! Whether you're brand new here or you've been here since the very beginning, you're welcome to come hang out, meet some new people, reconnect with others, and maybe even make a new friend!

We will try to tag new members as they join, so help us make them feel welcome!

Here's today's newest forumites:

Re: Newbie's Social Club - Come make some friends!

@rav3n I like long walks good food camping but don't do it enough lol Don't watch TV and movies I get bored easy and can't seem to sit through a movie. Love 4x4 and motorcycles just expensive and outside my reach financially atm

@rav3n @tyme @Shaz51 good night y'all I'm off to bed the time I dread as my mind won't shut up,I will try some lavender oil 💜 thanks for the chat cheers @Sun01

Re: Newbie's Social Club - Come make some friends!

@Sun01 long walks are the besttt! oo camping, i haven't been in AGES, sounds like a peaceful and fun hobby/interest for sure.

gosh a lot of mates are into motorcycles, and at first i didn't get it but now i'm slowly appreciating them.

hope the lavender helps you rest up, take care and hope your weekend runs smoothly too! 💜

Re: Newbie's Social Club - Come make some friends!

Sounds like such an eventful life you have there @Sun01 🙂

All the best with helping your mate move... that's one thing i totally dislike - moving!!!! It stresses me out!

Re: Newbie's Social Club - Come make some friends!

Sorry for the delayed reply @Ru-bee. For me it doesn't stop at the moment but the slowing comes with time with my kids or strangely enough when I wake up in the middle of the night and I'm happy that it's not the morning yet. it's a bit depressing in itself but when I wake up at 3 and think ahh it's not morning I can go back to sleep and escape this for another three or four hours then that's nice

Hi everyone

This is my first post, I don't normally join these types of groups but I thought, why not?

This site is great by the way!

I just wanted to ask if anyone on here has had DBT and if you have or are in the process what do you think?

The waitlist is over 12 months in my area but at least I'm trying to get there
