    “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.

    I had a nosey at elefriends. The website feels like it’s targeted towards children & young people so I was really quite surprised when I read you had to be 18 or older ! Like whattt? The whole concept of everyone being wee elephants and there being a big elephant moderator feels ... idk... weird 🤣. Like it feels childish and if I was an adult using it I think I’d feel a bit patronised . But that’s just me, I havent used the website cause I’m way too young.  I just think the idea is odd and the advertisements for it make it seem like it’s for young people 😬😬 the fella voicing their ad reminds me of David Attenborough too lol

    It’s kind of similar to this you can post stuff if you need advice or support. I personally found there were so many people on it you posts would easily be missed and I find some people seem to spam it a lot. I mean obviously that’s just my opinion lol I’m sure some people find it helpful
    The steps you take don’t need to be big, they just need to take you in the right direction.

    They treated me like shit. I posted how I felt and said it was against guidelines when others literally posted worse and stayed while I got bannned. They must of knew the mods or something because literally unbelievable with what some people got away with

    Plus it feels like social media and I didn’t like it if I never got any reaction 😂

    Users choose the name. Not mind. They have a whole new thing now anyway and elefriends is being deleted

    Really glad you find it useful 😊 I cant comment on how useful it is as I’m too young to use it but I just thought the concept was odd and wee bit cringe .. but that’s just me ahaha obviously it’s great stuff if people are finding it useful, maybe I’m picky 😆🤣

    The whole thing was designed by its users.. I think people need to realise that before attacking it. 
    It's no longer elefriends anyway

    It helps some people. Which literally just shows at how different each person gets treated. Some can post what they want and some cant even say a word. It’s weird like that
