Good morning, @outlander. Very early here but wanted to respond to your post about people leaving or engaging at different levels lately. Hugs first of all for how you have been feeling, not just about the forum, but for what you said about feeling the same stuff comes up for you day after day in your real life. It seems that many of us with mental illness face a similar thing with that in a way. One of the great strengths about the forum as I see it is the way we are able to keep supporting each other through our daily struggles. I don't know how many times I have talked about sleep issues and lack of motivation here. It's huge amount over years! So I don't find it bothersome for you to keep talking about daily life and challenges, and I hope you do.
I may be one of the people who has seemed less present here lately. I'm mainly only posting in the very early morning hours at the moment. Focussing more on my real life over the other hours of my days. But I'm not going anywhere long term. The forum has been too important to me over these past years, the people I've come to know, including your lovely self. Just going through a phase of less presence for now.
Anyway, that's my long winded way of saying I hear you and care about you regardless of how much I am posting just now. So glad to see others have posted supportive messages to you about this before me. As I see it, the forum has always been changing over the years I have been here, and this is a part of its nature because of the different phases of life we all go through and the inevitability of people coming and going. You are such a special presence here and, in my view, while you are around, an important part of the forum remains the same.
More hugs and love from my corner.
