Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.

RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on [email protected]
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

If ya'll aren't emphasizing men's mental health, which is friggin epidemic, during the mental health month, it's being done wrong.

Let's be real, I don't remember seeing any 'mental health month' posts in May.

I find it ironic that mental health awareness month happens during one of the most hectic months of the year for many people.

I got to be honest, that really bums me out.

I'm a person with C-PTSD who volunteers with local veterans. I really hammered home mental health awareness month. I mean, I talk about it all the time, but NAMI does some cool stuff during May. I even recall seeing some busses that had NAMI wraps on them talking about it in May!

Eta: I said elsewhere, and I'm saying it again (hope it sinks in), next May I'll try and generate content and memes and stuff. Hearing that some of you didn't see or hear anything during May has really had a massive dampening effect on my day. Ya'll deserve outreach, same as everyone in my meatspace.
