    Hey @ellie2000. I guess this depends on what "people" you are referring to. Certainly, we do not expect anyone to act a certain way and we are a non-judgemental space.

    However, some people can have expectations. Would you like to tell us more about what this looks like for you at the moment?

    We are here for you and listening to you if you would like to share more with us. You have been really brave in reaching out to us, especially as you are trying to figure out who you are too <3

    It is ok to express yourself to someone with no filter @ellie2000, especially if you trust that person and feel safe and comfortable with them. It is a really brave thing for you to do.

    It does depend on who that 'person' is though and the relationship you have with them - the context matters. For example, you might do this in your personal life but not in your professional life.

    What games are you playing at the moment? Games sound helpful for you :)

    Quite a few games you are playing at the moment then @ellie2000. Are you enjoying them all and do you have any favourites? :)
