Hello I hope people don't mind but I thought for those who don't go into the other section of the board it would be helpful to put here, a friendship thread.

The other thread on the subject is in suicide discussions.
Hope the mods are okay with one here? @_Minsk @BPD Barbie
what do you guys think?

If it's okay, here, anyone interested in friendship post a little about yourself and see from others' posts who you would like to message with.

@Sinkinshyp @Chupacabra 44 inviting you to add comment, Chuba I know you started the other topic.

Isn't this kind of what the recovery partner sticky is for? Although still nice to see people making an effort to help people find friends. :happy:

if you see I replied to the other thread we had going. @SlowMo & I are working on a secret santa type deal to connect people. Anyone interested in participating please shoot a message to myself or @SlowMo. It would be great if we can get an idea of how many would be willing to be connected to another as a support type system

you are welcome to join just please message myself or @SlowMo . This way we have our messages to look through and no one will be forgotten. Sometimes threads have a way to go off in different directions and it can be easy to miss someone interested. SO I feel it's safer to just shoot one of us a message with yes please I want to join. Thank you for understanding and hugs hun
This is sort of what @SlowMo and I were discussing. It would work sort of like a secret santa deal. We're working on naming it.

We are taking a list of names of folks who want to be a part of it. Maybe everyone participating vote 1 person to draw names. 1/2 the names would be kept out and 1/2 would be put into a bucket, hat something. The person drawing names would grab 1 name from the left out of bucket- pull a name from bucket and those 2 people are matched. Process completes until all names are matched.

Everyone participating can choose lets draw names once a month or bi weekly whatever. Doing it this way- people are matched together who may never have talked before. They may find a new friend, support person, may have things in common. Than again they may have nothing in common and just say hi good luck wish you happiness. When we decide to draw names again- say in a month they may be matched with someone they develop a great friendship with. It's a good way to get people interacting with those they normally wouldn't, for people who don't reach out in pm's it will help them to do so and hopefully- most will find a new friend.

There are details we are working on. It will be a little bit as @SlowMo is going through something right now. As we get it together we will keep everyone informed. We may put up some votes to get things together that way everyone has some input as to how this will work as well. I'm going to copy this and repost a new thread over in recovery to update everyone.

If you are in recovery, not sure if you are or you want to ctb you are welcome to join. It's about forming new friendships, someone to help support you, to talk to someone when your're having a bad day or a good day, a way to share information mostly about recovery and helping eachother.
