Re: Discussion boards upgrade!
The old design was a lot more simple to use in my opinion. I understand changing to improve accessibility, but adding more complexity to it somewhat does the opposite. The text box's are way too different than they needed to be, the react icons are also a fair downgrade, and i'm not personally a fan of this layout at all. Maybe it's worth having multiple layout options for users to individually pick from, like legacy versions, so each person can choose what works best for them?

Re: Anti-Bullying Week
Odd socks are on this evening!
One thing i am proud of myself is having the ability to keep on keeping on despite the challenges life often throws your way! Learning the right techniques is key- from mindfulness (if not able to go out) to long walks (if i am!),it's about learning what works for you!

hello!
Its been a little since this account has been created, but today i finally introduce myself. my name is goodringing, ive been struggling with myself and its been complicated to interact or do things with other people. as the days i go onto the mix more, I hope i can express and help myself, and find friends. Nice to meet you all
Final week at college
So after having a long chat with my mum yesterday I’ve decided to leave college, mainly because the art I’m doing on the course won’t get me anywhere in my tattoo career and because the college in general to be honest, I hate that college it’s awful I’ve been so unhappy there since I started and I tried to stick it out but I genuinely can’t any longer it’s bringing my mental health down more.
On Wednesday I’m going to sign up at the job centre and then I can leave college. My mum said once I get a job I will need to pay rent which I’ve agreed to and she said it will only be a small amount. Then once I’m working I’m going to do a fine art course online and work my own way into tattooing and at my own pace
It started because I was saying I just want money for Christmas and for my mum to manage it so I can save up for a car and that’s how we got started on leaving college lol. We had a long chat about leaving and she said if it’s gonna make me happy then she’s happy to let me do that
My worries
My mum said I’d be claiming benefits till I can get a job and it’s like with the media there’s a lot of bad press about misusing benefits so I’m scared that it makes me bad especially as my birth mom and one of my brothers claim benefits and they just sit at home all day eating junk food and doing nothing which if there fine with that then fair enough but I don’t want to be like them. I want a job where I’m earning money if that makes sense? I hope this doing come across badly. Sorry

Re: October 2025 achievements!
I bought a walking stick in October to help me get around due to my condition. After a couple of months of contemplating, at first I felt really conscious using it, like everyone was watching/ judging me for being a young person with a mobility aid. After using it a few more times, I feel more confident, and I am putting my needs over any else's opinions.
