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:

Hello. Thanks for the welcome. Not sure I'm going to fit in here too well. Everyone seems to be happy and positive and I don't want to put a dampen on that with my moods.

We're all here to support each other and to receive support in turn @Hopeandlove

The forums is a safe space to talk about what's going on, but of course you can always find another section of the forums to talk if you feel your conversation is better had there, we've got spaces for just about everything: Spaces - SANE Forums

And just a handy forums tip for all - to make sure that other's are notified when you're replying to their post you can tag them by pressing "@" and then selecting their name from the drop down menu. You'll know if it worked because the name will then appear in blue like this @rav3n

Wow, Thanks for the warm welcome. Wish I knew about this place before, especially in my darker days. It's so good to know I'm not the only one going through life's challenges and dealing with them in the way my brain and mind process them. Professional help in seeing the light at the end of the tunnel has helped me in the past. Even when I thought there was no hope.

What helps to get me from going back there is that other people have the same troubles I have, and most importantly people care about me. I am worthwhile. Thank you so much for this service and everyone on it

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

Thank you for sharing this @Glenn942 I'm sure it hasn't been easy, but it's amazing to hear about how you've had the ability to find light in the darkness.

What also stood out to me was how we can gain strength just by knowing that others have been where we are, and have navigated their way through. That's something so powerful about peer-led spaces where you can connect with people at all stages of their journey. Thanks so much for being here, I'm really glad that you've found this space too!

Sounds like the perfect place for you. I have an idea what you are feeling as I guess most here do and I'll listen and help if I can. I care about people and what they are going through
