General Chat (8.9.30pm): A place for more light-hearted chat about pretty much anything be it TV, music, the weather, that hilarious video you saw on YouTube etc. 

Support Circle (7.55-9.30pm): Support Circle is a Support Chat of no more than 6 people, where everyone takes it in turns to share while the rest of the group listens. We have places for people who want to come and get support or attend as listeners. You can sign-up here.

[NEW] Under 16's Support Chat (6:00-7:30pm): We're piloting a new form of Under 16's Support Chat. Find all the information for that here.

    Looks like we don't have any chat tonight. It says "502 Bad Gateway." Why today? 😭

    But @The Mix are not usually online on Sundays. Or if anyone is, usually just for a little bit of the day.

    Sadly I highly doubt that chat will be running tonight. I will post a general chat discussion if it doesn't fix itself in the next 20 minutes.

    Sometimes they are to send DMs and there are mods on the boards who can contact people...

    I was going to start a general chat thread if that is something people would want :heart:

    Why only ever a general chat thread- why never a support thread?
    “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. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    Stephanie has only had general chat training and she is the one who offered to make a discussion.

    Hey Everyone, 

    Thanks for flagging that Chat is down. Sorry we don't have any staff on today so missed your message @GreenTea. We have had a look and unfortunately it looks like all of Chatwee is down at the moment with no sign of it being back online soon so we will be cancelling chat tonight. 

    Hopefully it will be up and running for tomorrow night. In the meantime if you need support, you speak to our team via our helpline webchat or on 0800 800 4994, or message crisis messenger by texting THEMIX to 85258

    @Stephanie has kindly offered to run a general chat thread.  - Have fun and we will be in touch tomorrow.

    Thanks
    Italia & The Team.

    @The Mix it's literally been down all day. Seems like there's been a massive outage on everything all weekend. Discord went down, Instagram, twitter died for a few moments at one point

    I've just updated this thread with the information for tonight's Under 16's Chat. Realised we didn't include it before. :)

    Thanks for this @GreenTea. So weird! Fingers crossed for the next few days...

    All behaviour is a need trying to be met.
