Chronic Jealousy, emotional abuse & control issues

Jumping in as the discussion has shifted away from peer support and toward concerns about moderation response times and consistency. We want to acknowledge that moderation here is a human process, not an automated one, and while we strive for timeliness and consistency, natural variations can occur.

That said, let's keep this space focused on supporting each other, staying recovery-oriented, encouraging help-seeking and building genuine connection between members. Thanks everyone for helping to maintain a supportive and respectful community, along with offering support to those members reaching out.

Hey @c-user1999 i asked to safely share about mu therapists as id been asked to. Clarity and transpreny are ethical values i live by. Since i wasnt told ither way ill proceed to safely share my therapists names in support of others here. Just felt checking kept us all safe. I fidnt get a no, so ill keep at it. Havs a great day. Thanks for keeping the service safe!

@@Moderators, can the question that Eternalflower and myself please be answered.

questions are linked and relate to having the correct information to allow support and/or information to be provided to members and only mentioning information members are allowed to

@Flutterbug9 @EternalFlower to my knowledge, we ask members to refrain from sharing names of practitioners and smaller practices because of two main reasons - 1. to ensure anonymity and 2. because everyone is so individual in their needs and experiences.

So like, someone who is a good fit for one person might be a mismatch for another. Making recommendations one way or another could result in negative experiences or possibly even re-traumatisation, which would be a heavy thing for anyone to hold.

I believe there are services/websites out there too, where people can share reviews and experiences of particular therapists and services - so it falls outside of the scope of this space, where the focus is peer-to-peer support and connection, for members to discuss their experiences in that way.

@c-user1999

Thanks for the clarification @Jynx @plus the additional information

@Jynx i asked another moderator who said that was fine, in the threads. I checked 4 times before doing so.

Thanks

We do have a bunch of newer mods around who may not be as aware of those more nuanced parts of guidelines and forums etiquette @EternalFlower so (without me knowing more about this situation) it's likely you've done nothing wrong. I can pass it on to the team as a reminder.

@Jynx i checked a few times and some posts have been allowed up inthe last few days asking for therapists, or in one cse asking for lived experinece of a particular psych ward.

While i was a bit taken aback that such things were allowed, modetors engaged these post, even offering what they've heard about the hospital. So i joined in. I don't mind if thats allowed, i will follow the rules but as i understood now we are allowing ppl to name services and psychologists as long as we don't say something negative about them.

My own personal boudary is I will not name services where i am currently seeking treatment, because it cold identify me. Otherwise i don't mind.

I'll get some clarity about this one @EternalFlower and see what the deal is 👍 Might not be able to get back to you straight away but maybe @c-user1999 can also provide some clarity.

@Jynx fully hear u.
