Support Circle (Sunday 26th August)

TheMixTheMix Posts: 3,040 Boards Guru
Hey everyone,

We have Support Circle running on Sunday 26th August from 7.55-9:30pm. Sand will be modding.

What is Support Circle?

For anyone who doesn't know, a support circle chat follows the same basic structure as a standard support chat session - opening round, support time, and closing round. Everyone that signs up will have their own time to chat and be heard by the group, and have their chance to listen and support others.

Why go to Support Circle?

It's a great space for people who find it difficult to get their voices heard in regular support chat and/or are keen to listen and support others in a more structured environment. We have places for both people who want to come and get support or be listeners and support others. 

Sign up using this form and we will contact you via private message to confirm your place.

We're @Aife, @Ella, @Emma_, @Gemma, and @JustV - the staff team here at The Mix.

Our DMs are monitored Monday - Friday (10am - 6pm) with limited cover on weekends. We have a great team of moderators looking after the community outside of those hours to check in on any reported posts.

We're not able to provide support on this account. If you need support urgently for any reason, please call 999, go to your nearest A&E or contact Crisis Messenger by texting THEMIX to 85258.

    I feel like I could benefit from support circle maybe, just need the courage to actually apply and not be so worried about taking someone else's place haha

    Hey @Laine I completely agree with everything @BubblesGoesBoo has said. Everyone deserves support and that includes you. If it helps to hear, it's very rare that we're not able to offer everyone a place that signs up :)

    what type of things do you talk about??? and does everyone have to talk because im not really good at sharing my problems?
  • LaineLaine Deactivated Posts: 2,762 Boards Guru
    Hey Mama, 


    You talk about whatever is troubling you at this moment, everyone takes it in turns to talk and the rest supports. 

    You don't have to share your problems if you don't wish to you can sign up just to support :)
