:yippe:

Some of you may have noticed that TheSite is in the process of getting a revamp. So far the homepage, the Sex & Relationships section and the Work & Study section have been updated.

The latest addition is our Mental Health section and we're really proud of it :)

Our editorial team have been working really hard on this and not only does it have the new look but all of the content has been reviewed, updated and there's some new stuff to!

A few highlights..

A new section on anxiety looking at stress, OCD and phobias: http://www.thesite.org/mental-health/anxiety-ocd-and-phobias

What to do when you hate your life: http://www.thesite.org/mental-health/looking-after-yourself/i-hate-my-life-5639.html

Should I take anti-depressants: http://www.thesite.org/mental-health/anxiety-ocd-and-phobias/should-i-take-antidepressants-6119.html

Some real life stories...

Being admitted to psychiatric ward: http://www.thesite.org/true-stories/life-on-a-psychiatric-ward-6149.html

Being the child of a hoarder: http://www.thesite.org/true-stories/my-mother-is-a-hoarder-6164.html

Take some time to explore and let us know what you think :thumb:

    I have spent the last 25 minutes looking at articles and I'm already hooked. Amazing, and so informative. I love the layout. Well done everyone. When I turn my laptop on, I'm going to have a proper nosey at everything and post a more detailed reply when I have :)

    I really like it. Its user friendly and the layout is eye catching.

    I really like the questions that you can answer to find out about depression and anxiety.

    You guys have all worked really hard on it. Well done!! :-)

    " So I say thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing, thanks for all the joy they're bringing, who can live without it, I ask in all honestly what would life be? Without a song or a dance, what are we? So I say thank you for the music, for giving it to me "

    I'm still adjusting to it :p - But I like the use of blue, in comparison to purple. It looks a lot better, and a lot more organized in general, like the sections, it's easier to find articles if you can't remember the name of them, and look in to other issues, I really do love it, and how well organized it is! I agree with SophiePea's word on his!

    I've always liked the way the titles were directed to us, like Do I, Should I, Am I, etc!

    I really like the new article by Holly on Personality Disorder. It is a million times better than the old one and addresses the myth that they cannot be treated (whereas the old article seemed to imply this to be true). Well done :)

    The article on hating your life is so helpful to me right now.

    I need to focus on what I've done to get to where I am instead of looking ahead to where I want to be.
