@eylah you are enough enough, i promise! the problem isn’t that you aren’t enough, it’s just that you’ve (wrongfully) been made to feel this way
@shannon_164 it's okay to have a few mental health days off now and there, especially when things get really overwhelming. If it's the deadline tomorrow, is there anyway you can perhaps do it online at all if you need to get it done?
I promise you @eylah that you are enough. You are one of the kindest people in the world, with a truly kind heart, and you don't ever deserve to be made to feel like you aren't enough. The entire community will back me on this one. Like shannon said, the issue isn't you at all, it's whatever, or whoever has left you feeling that way.
Sending you a virtual hug, my favourite twat in the world
ok i wont jump to conclusions.
@so_very_tired i wasn't trying to suggest that you thought it was okay, i just wanted to reassure you that it's both okay and normal to still feel anger over it, and to remind you that how you're feeling is entirely valid. Just based on your mum's behaviour here, i can only imagine what other family issues you'll be facing, so i fully get that you've got a whole mountain of stress on your plate. Hopefully, your mum can step back a bit eventually and give you some breathing room after this.
@shannon_164 the problem isn't you at all. Nobody deserves to be excluded at all. I know it can't be spoken about here, but i need you to know that you don't deserve any of it. You've been nothing but supportive of others, and a good friend to others.
you haven't, i have though. I will be surprised if I still have an account after all of this but it was 1000% worth it
I just hope people aren't leaving because of me
the only way im leaving is if my account is banned.
people aren’t leaving because of you or any community member, i promise - people are leaving because of how the mix is these days, it’s sad, but the mix has really went downhill:(
its a shame im only just seeing is just now, i was enjoying my time on the mix.
Im really sorry with all this @shannon_164 I know how its been. Multiple mods, staff and members haven't been leaving for no reason. Im sorry I'm not any help to anyone like you shannon or @Nathan and @so_very_tired , I just don't want to get in trouble myself not to sound selfish, Im so sorry.
Thank you, I completely understand, im not sure if you have tried but mind side by side is another community you could join and I think its unlimited age @shannon_164 and @Nathan
i’m not sure if it covers ni as i know mind is only available in england and wales sadly:(
@Redemption nobody is leaving because of you. I promise bro. I put my reasons for leaving in my post, as much as i think i'm allowed to. It's no community members, don't worry.
@shannon_164
Apparently it does according to chat gpt but it might be wrong, could be worth a bit of digging
because they dont want people to know the reality of how some are being treated lol i get not all members know the full context of situations but editing something simple like me saying i was banned (it wasn’t optional for me therefore i was banned) to say it was a break indicating i chose to leave makes no sense in my opinion
the mix should be able to face criticism.
We understand that this is a difficult situation, but its important to be mindful that The Mix has a duty to ensure that its community guidelines are followed and respected. Whilst we have personal discussions with community members, we are unable to share the details of these and hence the reasons why individual decisions are made.
