New to here and kind of whats going on

Hi, so I dont know how to start these, but hi. A friend found this forum for me last night because I have been kinda struggling lately. Since some mental barriers I put up in my head came down I have been dealing with issues of dissociated identity (more overtly than ever before).

3 facts about me, ummmm I have a degree in psychology so dont think we are all sane, ummm I apparently cant like things in a chill way, I know at least a bit about a lot of things

@TheSystem Welcome.

I’m sorry you are struggling with some mental health issues. Your friend sounds very caring.

You are welcome to look around and join in wherever you feel comfortable. Lots of understanding/ caring people here.

The @brings a dropdown , that’s how we tag others into the conversations.

I hope you find the support you need.
