[Comment] New Private Group

~~Leo656~~ · 01-05-2015, 09:14 PM

I been putting this off for a while, but I started a new private discussion group that's invite-only where people who struggle with depression, mental illness, etc., can blow off steam and discuss things with others who empathize.

Everyone needs a place to vent, but public forums aren't the best place, as far too often people jump in to say judgmental/hurtful things. Even the "Gear Grind" thread ends up with people arguing/attacking each other every few days whenever people start getting "too personal" and others don't want to hear/read about it. That said, many members here are on close enough terms that they feel comfortable discussing things with each other that they couldn't with other people. So, I went ahead and decided to create a little space. Gonna go ahead and invite a couple of "The Usual Suspects" to get the ball rolling.

Anyone who feels like blowing off steam in a judgment-free zone, reply to thread and ask for an invite. Please do not PM me about it, as I really need to get around to cleaning out my PM box. Just reply to the thread and I'll shoot you an Invite.

Not interested, just move along and save the snark. Just trying to help people out as best I can.
