in Introduce Yourself
Hi, I'm new to the site, just joined yesterday!

I joined because I feel I'm having a rough patch in my life and I wanted advice. Also, it would be good to hear from others in similar situations too.

When I was first told about the site I was reluctant to join over fear of being judged and people finding out my identity- that's why I'm not using my name! But I'm glad I took the push!

I wanted to just say that I'm quite a shy person but I'll try my best to join in! :)

    Well done you for pushing yourself to sign up - that's a really brave step in itself. It incredible how anonymous people can stay on here so you've nothing to worry about with that.

    That's cool, most people don't use their real name here as it's often easier to talk that way and also it's a lot safer ;)

    Great to have you on board :thumb:
