Gifts to the community!

[Former-Member]

Hello everyone, 

This year we are doing two gift giving threads! As the holiday season approaches we thought it would be fun to share some virtual gifts for the community. What would you like to give to the community to share some love for the year that has been?

Once you have posted here, head to Gifts to yourself! on the Carers side of the forums. Lets celebrate and connect across the two this holiday season!

To start this thread off, my gift to everyone this year is admiration. My admiration to everyone in the community is huge - you all have such strength to reach out in this space, share your vulnerabilities and offer big doses of support to others you connect with. Its truly amazing and I admire every one of you.

A year of GROWTH

Growth in the number of members on the forums.

Growth individually as people manage their own battles.

Growth in the way our community constantly shows up for and supports other members.

The gift of self compassion.

I don't know what I bring - maybe lots of empathy and care for others.
