I am new here but when I signed up- my first few days here I was reading all the threads on all the forums at Psych Central. I started to think this may not be the best place for me and a lot of things certainly didn’t seem safe, but then I found the general threads..like this here couch thread and some other threads over in general social chat..where the conversations are kept light. I think one I answered was about how people like their toast in the morning. So I decided to just stick to these general conversation threads, chime in when I can and just read when I have nothing to offer. So far, that’s working for me. Of course in my short time here I did not see everything and of course have no knowledge of what happened here in the past so it’s all still so fresh for me. Ruh Roh, I am so sorry you got silenced and feel unsafe here. I hope you can do whatever you need to do to take care of yourself.
