Off My Chest

RULES:


I am looking for mods!


1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.

2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)

3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.

4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.

5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.

6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

My best (and really only) friend is leaving town. Already her absence has been felt in a lot of our common circles, and this plus other typical life-related problems have me pretty down these past few days. Recently she's been the source of a lot of positive change in my life, and it's been harder than expected coming to terms with this update, even though this will hopefully be a great step forward for her. I think I'm strong enough to move on and continue improving myself without her, but I am still a bit worried about keeping up, and things will definitely be lonelier going forward

It will be lonlier, but know that that will change, too.
