Apology I guess.

I am so sorry, lately and well ever since I even joined this community I have been constantly making mistakes when I'm talking about things, trying to protect myself in a way but probably not so in the best way. I apologise to everyone here, and I guess I need to learn to stop protecting myself in such way.
Maybe I don't deserve a place in this community.

You've never done anything wrong bea, you're a valued member here
@Animalloverb you absolutely deserve a place in this community and as Redemption said, you are a valued member here. Communication can be difficult, especially when you are trying to express yourself or your feelings, but that doesn't mean you don't deserve to be here. Can I ask what has happened to make you feel this way?
@Animalloverb you know, i don't think there's anybody who is more deserving of a place in the community than you are. Even when you went through such horrific times, even when you went through some of the worst pain imaginable, you were up, posting messages of support and kindness to other community members. The support and help you've given so many others is enormous, and you deserve that same support and kindness back, and more.
Whatever your comfortable speaking about, whenever you feel able to open up, we're here for you. Please don't feel any pressure, or like there's an expectation to have to open up by a certain point, because there isn't. This community is just as much yours as it is anybody else's. Whether to open up and vent about things, whether just to make friends, whether just to have a fun little chit chat. Whatever you feel comfortable with, we're here for you, and your place in this community is unconditional.
You have zero to say sorry about.
@Sabah
Don't really want to answer that publicly.
@Nathan
I really appreciate that mate.
@Redemption
Thank you, I appreciate it.
@Animalloverb , it sounds like things might be feeling really hard right now, and in this space, you're very welcome to talk about only the things you feel comfortable sharing. There's truly no pressure, and we're here for you. Sending you care
@Sian321
Thank you, I appreciate that.
@Animalloverb that's completely understandable. Please do only share what you feel comfortable doing, there's no pressure at all to answer any questions that make you feel uncomfortable.
Also want to add and say you absolutely do deserve a place in the community @Animalloverb - you've been there to support people so much, and you deserve to get that same support reciprocated too. You will always be welcome to share as much or as little as you feel comfortable with on here, there's never any pressure. But remember you are such a loved and valued member of the community - it wouldn't be the same without you. Sending you the biggest of hugs ❤️
