i think this was asked before, but nothing came of it

if i were to start a group chat once a week for people with schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders to come together and chat, would anyone show up?
we used to have a schizophrenia chat but hardly anyone showed up, and before then when we had a schizophrenia chat it got so crowded that it was hard to manage
Thanks for this!

I'm sure we can figure out a time that works for everyone. Maybe weekends would be better.

i am usually not home on weekends for right now as my house is on the market to be sold, so we have most of our showings on the weekend

i think i have the chat set for tuesdays 6:30-7:30 central time

i have never led a chat before so i hope it all turns out okay

i dont really know what topics to discuss if we do have topics, i really just wanted a place where people with schizophrenia and psychosis could come and chat and not be judged or told to shut up by people who clearly dont understand psychosis

I would come to this, I have fairly regularly gone to the Depression/Anxiety chat for over a year now.

I would come to this for sure! I can help host as well if needed, I don't have work to obligate my time. If any help is needed please message me, I plan to be much more active in here anyway

that would be great, Rzqrtzhrt
i could use a backup host in case of times where i wont be able to host myself

i can talk to john25 about it, if you want

i have never hosted a chat before, i expect that it would be easier with a co-host
