I used to like shouting that I was still awake at 3am. . .
and someone's distress messages which caused me to call 999. . it turned out not to be needed, but what if it saved a life?

I've been away for an eternity, too, and may not stay long, now. It's not the place it once was... I asked Atticus where the Shoutbox had gone a few days ago, and he didn't know, but said he was going to try to reactivate it. Probably slipped his mind. I do know that PD didn't turn it off, so my guess is that it was Roland. It does seem an odd thing to do when there was such a hoo-ha going on at the time about 'censorship', but there we are. Odd things happen. Shiny

Shiny Hi thanks for the update, funnily enough what brought me back was someone getting banned ! - and strangely what sent me away was also someone getting banned ! one of my adhd traits is to see everything as very black or white - spent years in therapy learning to see the grey In life - it doesn't sit comfortably with me to ban people - from anywhere - reminds me of getting expelled from school, and also my daughter getting 'permanently excluded' as they call it now, and children getting put in care am a member of alcoholics anonymous and love the fact that however out of order people may sometimes be in a meeting - we never ban anyone - there's always a way back feel it leaves no option for dialogue - takes away our voice - leaves us powerless with no options I'd rather keep working at whatever the problem is until a mutual place of compromise or reconciliation is found and also of course causes a lot of hurt and pain - and as an adhd'er feel we on here should be more aware of that than most - as we are often misunderstood and harshly treated glad the shout box will be coming back and hope we're allowed to start swearing again too - as must admit all that know me on here know I have a foul mouth and its a place that I used to feel I was able to be real - this forum was a saving grace for me at an excrutionally difficult phase in my life - it was an amazing space in which I felt more supported and accepted than any other time in the whole of my life - and also it was just sooooooo much - fun I was 50 when I joined - and ironically it was because of that that I could negotiate the real world and stop living on here hope it will feel the same this second time around - i'm not good with change lol and feels like a strange territory at the mo and i'm treading cautiously - hope that it can be what you need it to be for you again too Jan
