    sadly there isn’t anymore, that function was disabled only a few weeks ago.

    @TheMix

    might have more ideas on this one, but if you did want to talk about it, you could always post it here and then ask for it to be deleted once you’d received the support you needed?

    It’s not a perfect solution, and it does mean it’s still public, but it might mean you have a way of speaking about it.

    Also, if you’ve ever been to one of the support groups, they can be an easier place to talk about more personal things because what’s said there stays there, and it disappears afterwards. Same for the weekend support threads on the boards, they are archived afterwards. There’s certain things I haven’t posted about on the boards but have discussed in chat purely because number 1 I can see who is in the room (more comfy if it’s all people i recognise) and number 2 it vanishes into thin air once the chat is finished.

    Hey

    you've done really well to reach out to our community and it's totally valid to not feel comfortable posting publicly. That's okay!

    Our community members are no longer able to DM each other.

    Click here to for more information on why this change was made.

    However, you are still able to DM

    @TheMix

    . I'm not sure if you have a DM set up so I will send you a new one shortly if you'd like to chat to us about what you're wanting advice on.

    We are unable to provide 1-1 support in DMs so if this is what you're looking for then I recommend texting THEMIX to 85258 which is our free, confidential and 24/7 texting service. And like

    @independent_

    mentioned above, you may also find our support group chats useful.

    Click here to check out this week's schedule.

    I hear you're not wanting to post publicly, so I wonder if you would find our Support Circle space useful. This is a group chat that runs every Tuesday evening of around 4-6 people where each person takes it in turn getting support from the rest of the group. For this chat you sign up beforehand. Unfortunately we are full for this evening's session, but you're more than welcome to sign up for next week's session when the sign ups open tomorrow morning.

    Click here to find out more about Support Circle.

    And I'll send you that DM now from
