hey @Lost52, welcome to the forums! thought i'd just jump in to share a lil forums tip: when you want to reply to someone, you can tag their username using the @ symbol and typing it out. when you select the username and it turns blue, that means the member you've tagged will be notified of your response. 

@EzW above post from @Lost52 is for you 😊

a warm hello to you all @Kashmina @Lost52 @EzW ✨

[Lost52]

Hi Kashmina, @Kashmina @may I ask what you are studying? I'm studying creative and copy writing Yes, breaks are necessary. I'm afraid I've been having a large break, I've been dealing with depression and I had a medical procedure on Friday which tired me out for a couple of days. I've been on a waiting list for surgery now for 3years! I just want it done. How are you doing? Hey, I think I sent this post straight to you! using the @ symbol, yeah!

[Kashmina]

Sure @Lost52, I am studying women's advocacy and yes it came straight to me!

Its interesting in the respect that I am learning a lot about myself, communication style, self-awareness. All areas I need to work on. Yours sounds really interesting. Are you enjoying it?

Depression is hard to manage, I hope you have some strategies to help with it. But I know from my own experience with depression that is easier said than done! Its a hard life to lead when you are constantly battling yourself 😞

Hi @strawberry2 How's your day going so far?

[strawberry2]

Thanks for asking.

I went out bought a bag today. I felt good but then I felt sad because I couldn't break a pattern.

Im trying online disability group Saturday I hope it helps. I tried one yesterday but could not speak up.

[EzW]

Welcome everyone!

[Ru-bee]

Good on you for giving it another go @strawberry2 it can be really hard to speak up sometimes in group dynamics, that's something I struggle with too. Hoping that Saturday's group feels a bit more comfortable for you

[EzW]

Im meant to be on a group discussion but I have know idea how!!??  Can someone help?
