Hi! I'm new here, I'm not sure how this works yet though. I'm not even sure where this post will go!

    Hi James :)

    Welcome to our boards. I'm sure that given time you will find how easy going and helpful members are and one way to do this is make yourself a chat account when chats begin in the evenings here:-


    and it only takes a few minutes to sign up. 'General' chats are easy going and more relaxed, and there are support chats announced here:  https://community.themix.org.uk/categories/live-chat-announcements

    So if you want help with a problem, there are some great opportunities in our very well moderated chat rooms. Plus Support Circle on Tuesday and Sunday evenings if you especially need 10 minutes (sometimes more) of uninterrupted time to talk over your problem and a bunch a very helpful members there to help.

    Or, jump in on any post in our forums. That's how I did it! =)

    Best wishes and enjoy your time with us,
    Mandy

    Welcome James
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    Welcome James, it's so great to have you here :) 

    When you feel ready, feel free to make a thread about anything. We're all here to support you :) 
    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤
