First time for everything
Hi everyone, I'm not just new to saneforums but new to forums full stop. I'm not sure what to expect but know I need to break the isolation I find myself in.

Re: First time for everything
Hi and welcome, @Trish3 , it's good to have you here.
I'm sorry you feel so isolated 😞 Well done for reaching out and doing something about it.
Feel free to type any topic into the Search bar above to find threads on that topic.
A handy forum tip is if you type @ and then click on a name in the drop-down box, that person will get a notification and won't miss your reply to them.
I hope you find the forums supportive.

Re: First time for everything
Hi @Trish3,
Welcome to the forums. My name is FloatingFeather and I am one of the peer support workers at SANE. The forums are a great place to chat with others, share your stories, and get some great support and wisdom from our members.
I find the best way to better understand the forums and is just to explore. If there is a particular topic you are interested in you can use the magnifying glass symbol in the top right corner of the web page. Another way to search for topics is to head to the bottom of the forums page and you will see various topics - click on the topic(s) you are interested in and it will redirect to the appropriate location.
We are really pleased you have found us and look forward to seeing you in the forums.
Best wishes,
FloatingFeather

Thank you Red Horse, I'm feeling a bit like a fish out of water atm but I'm encouraged by how the forum has helped you
