Ask the SH Owner

What made you want to start this forum?
I’ve felt that there wasn’t a online community that was geared primarily towards mental health. I have had and still do have issues with mental health, and over the years, I’ve learned a lot and felt like others might want a space where can feel comfortable and just be heard or just a safe space to be with others online. I firmly believe no one should go through life alone, everyone should be able to come together and help one another with whatever they might need help with. I just felt like I should help out in a way that I believed would help in some fashion or way.

I totally agree and so glad you made this community. ?
 
Why did you shut down SH?
I liked the direction it was heading, though when I reached out to @Rey619 about a possible collab or partnership, I suggested a merge potentially, and Rey agreed. I wasn’t going to have the domain renewed and we both discussed it and I felt that instead of participating in two forums let’s just combine and work out of one community. So that’s what I did.

I loved that forum. Nomad even convinced me to write articles and I was working on articles but before I could publish the forum ceased to exist. When you merged here perhaps you could have retained some categories, for instance, Mental Health. What do you think?
 
we did merge the majority of threads and posts to here, we took away the categories and put them in multiple forums here. I’m sorry, the merge happened very quickly, but I do apologize for not telling everyone.
