Finishing off on The Mix

Redemption

I realized early on that I would have to leave this community when I turn 26, I just don’t know what I’ll do when I have to finish off here. Before I joined, I struggled a lot with keeping everything bottled up, and it felt like there was no outlet for how I was feeling. Over the past few months, being part of the community has given me a place where I can vent and express what’s on my mind without feeling judged. I’ve also been able to share my interests here, which has helped me feel less alone overall. I’ve used other communities before, but they’ve been mostly negative, with restrictions on how often you can post or how repetative your thoughts are. Places that are truely non-judgmental are limited these days, but here, it’s different. It’s a freindly, supportive space where I can share whenever I need to, without fear of being judged. I’ve also learned a few things from being part of this community, like new ways to cope with stress and handle difficult situations. Leaving feels like I’m walking away from a space that really understands and supports me. I’d rather not share my age, but it’s still quite a bit of time until I finish off here on and I'm hoping I'll be in a totally different position and all my struggles would have mostly or fully gone by then but I'm still going to find it hard leaving. Does anyone have any advice?

Just popping in to point you here @TheNightmare https://community.themix.org.uk/discussion/3598388/what-if-im-over-25/p2

You’re not kicked out as soon as you turn 26, it’s more of a gradual transition.
