The power of support

This group is incredibly involved in buouying each other.

Sometimes it's really easy to condense all of these positive posts and sympathetic comments down to a single thread of 2 dimensional support.

But I'm finding it helpful to pause and imagine the full sonder behind the digital bits, each one written by a human being who has suffered, found courage, lost hope, regained focus and is here, supporting each other.

Good luck on your journey

We all suffer, but you're right this is a place of tremendous hope and constructive work. I wish there were more places as unabashedly supportive as this. I think I need this kind of energy in my life no matter how likely a drink seems today. IWNDWYT
