I feel that wherever I write I am upsetting someone...
I have seen statements where someone was told by Sane to stay away from that person...
Last night someone said that they had been triggered ...you were there.
I have noticed that I too have been followed by peer support workers or such and feel as though I am a threat to others..
I am so close to leaving the forums as
I have trod on eggshells for the majority of my life around people
You know about the other situation as well.
Perhaps I should just leave.

I'm sorry you feel this way @Sophia1 .
I'm not sure I have the whole picture of what you are sharing. In no way do we expect you to walk on eggshells.
I am happy to clarify anything you want. The last thing we want is for you to be 'driven' away from the forums because of some miscommunication. I would be more than happy to help clear the air.
You are welcome to email us if there are specific incidents you'd like us to clarify.
Please know we all appreciate you. There are no hard feelings on my side.
We just want you to feel supported because you deserve it.

Sane were telling me to give the male from the other night some space. They didn’t actually say I had to but was more a recommendation.
It had nothing whatsoever to do with you
Hope that you are ok
please don’t leave

Could I please request that you email our dear @Sophia1 and have a chat with her. I am concerned about her. The post about Sane asking a person to not interact was mine about the situation with the returning male the other day. It is also easy to feel like you workers are following us about checking on us. We all get a little paranoid.
Thank you for checking in with her.

Just checking in with you.
Are you ok?
I am sure @Sophia1 will be ok, she is just stressed right now. We all get like that from time to time. Life is tough.
I am doing fine at the moment, I had a stressful time on the forums a few days ago but I have bounced back. I think I am in a strong position mentally at the moment so no need to worry.
@tonys just a check in. Are you ok?
