Re: Meet the staff & mods! ✨
Hiiii everyone!
I’m Beth and I joined the chat moderation team late last year. Before joining The Mix I was a counsellor at Childline!😃
1. What do you enjoy most about modding?
I love helping to create this safe corner of the internet where you can all share your thoughts and feelings with confidence💛
2. What's a fun fact about yourself?
I make fun, custom rugs for people and also do some graphic design work too!
3. What's your ideal way to spend your weekends?
I enjoy getting out and about, whether it’s taking my dogs for a walk, doing something adventurous or visiting friends and family!😄
4. What's one lesson you've learned from your life that you want to share with the community?
I’ve learnt to embrace the present moment and small joys in life. Whether it’s savouring the warmth of a morning cup of tea, enjoying the birds tweeting away or simply sharing laugher with loved ones. The fleeting moments are sometimes so beautiful and hold such significance💛

Name a Kitten part 2 - Time to vote!
Vote below: What should we name our kitten?
Her personality so far seems to be very playful and cuddly! She's also super gentle and doesn't scratch or bite when she is playing. She is snuggled up on my lap while I write this with a very loud purr
I've tried to pick one suggestion from each person that we like. We have until Monday evening to vote!
Thanks for helping me

Re: I need a hug (v2.0) 💚
Really really struggling. I'm really not okay. Been trying to talk to the person I usually talk to in school all week and she's promised to find me but is constantly too busy. I need a hug. I'm struggling so much and its too much

The Great Mixish Bake Off
Seeing as there is The Great British Bake Off, I thought of making a The Mix version. Of course we can do different themes but also a "choose your own." Although we won`t be able to actually taste the dishes, if people could post pictures, that would be great.

Re: April achievements, with a theme of self-care!
@lunarcat522, good luck with your exam!! I'm really happy to hear that you've been taking steps to respond to your needs and getting rid of negative influences
@sinead276, best of luck with all your uni assignments! How are the books that you're reading? And it's really good that you've acknowledged that dwelling on the past can be deteriorating, and that you've been taking steps to move on
@Amy22, I hope listening to the brown noise was helpful! Yes, I agree that it feels so great decluttering your mind - last month I deleted my insta account since the people who I followed there gave me a lot of mental clutter, and I'm glad that I don't get their posts on my feed anymore ^^ and I really like the stress bucket self-care activity! It's really helpful that you were able to reflect on what triggers you and what activities you can do to calm yourself down
@Cosycore_Witch, ahh that's so great, I'm really proud of you! I agree that eating healthy and taking vitamins give you such a nice feeling! I hope your DBT therapy's going well, and I'm happy that you've been devoting time for self-care - the activities you mentioned are definitely so relaxing

Re: I need a hug (v2.0) 💚
Over a month clean. Urges have been getting worse over the past few days so don't know if I can fight them much longer. Things are just so hard and I'm not coping. My drama teacher is gonna try get special consideration for my exam because my aunt is being cremated on the day of my exam so I'm not gonna do great. I hate being given special treatment tho. I should be able to just get over it all
