Hi

I'm new to the site. Is there a specific place on here where you can go to vent and/or one where you can just share stuff from your life (happy or sad or angry)? Not static like a journal, but not like an open discussion either...

For example, if I vent then maybe someone could advise me that maybe I am over-reacting and the situation is not that bad, or maybe my reaction is just, or maybe I under-reacted.

And for the sharing just a place to talk about life and relate to other people in their lives...

Hello. Welcome to PC. You could do that on many of the forums here. For instance, Coping with Emotions is a good forum to vent in. Several forums also have daily check in threads.
Thanks for this!

Yes, you can post anywhere that seems appropriate. You might want to add a comment like "not looking for advice", and that should work well.

Although they are usually meant for shorter posts, I personally like adding to the various "checking-in" threads in various forums. You might like those.

Welcome to PC.
Thanks for this!

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
