I joined this hoping to talk with lots of people or some anyway, has everyone went somewhere else, if so take me with you!! 
Hi @butterfly67 the forum seems to be having a bit of a low time at the moment. I am confident that it will recover and people will come back. I suppose that’s kinda a normal thing on the internet, that the users fluctuate.I joined this hoping to talk with lots of people or some anyway, has everyone went somewhere else, if so take me with you!!![]()
Participation comes and goes in streaks. I've checked around a lot and this is still the best place to be.I joined this hoping to talk with lots of people or some anyway, has everyone went somewhere else, if so take me with you!!![]()

Yeah, pretty much. It's a downer talking about this stuff regularly lol. Oh and it's the holidays and people are generally more busy this time of year.I think the lack of posting thing is probably the result of people signing up when they're desperate, posting their story, and disappearing once they've got some feedback. Also some people might not like the idea of thinking talking and interacting about their anxiety and depression on a daily basis... misery loves company and maybe we'd all be better off talking about something else.
True That might be it or parts of it. Anxiety is a hard beast to tackle. For some it’s enough to write it out and feel better after but then others find it very difficult to write and participate at all and tend to just read through the answers before they feel confident enough to start their own post.Yeah, pretty much.

If you look at it optimistically, it may mean a lot of people are getting over there problems. Personally, I doubt it, and there are probably more people sitting in a dark room more than ever...
I think Rinka said the site was having some difficulties after a google update, and that’s the reason for it being slow. Actually I’m seeing forums are more slow across the internet. Might be that search engines are sending less traffic to them for whatever reason. I dont know why, I much prefer forums to social media..Hi Chris. You and I are amongst the relatively few members that are regularly posting right now. If you look at the number of views of the threads, it would seem that many are viewing but not participating further. Sadly it is my belief that the vast majority of the views are from the search engines crawling around. I still have hope that things will pick up after the holidays. And, I am positive that the slump is not caused by a number of members having found the cure for anxiety and you and I were left out of the loop.
Uh a cure for anxiety, that would be really cool.Hi Chris. You and I are amongst the relatively few members that are regularly posting right now.

i think things will...holidays are a busy time for most people and a hard time for alot of us with mental disorders....Uh a cure for anxiety, that would be really cool.
It’s quite sad that people are less and less participating. I just hope we get it back up again, after the holidays.
