I want to emphasize that I was an addict and a person who was in a street situation for several months and this does not make me stronger or more special or important than anyone else but still I know that my words, facts or ideas would be of great help to anyone
I think that your experience can certainly come in handy for others who are going through a similar situation! You're able to provide a perspective that others, such as myself, cannot. Your experience has absolute value. 😊
some people make posts and (I speak for myself) I find them dramatic and sometimes out of context
That's actually an outstanding point. Some of the posts that appear here are more on the fun / gamey side of things, which I think is ok. However, that can run the risk of obscuring posts which might actually require attention. I wonder if there's a way that we can somehow filter or seek out such posts a little bit better.
And yes, sometimes people are dramatic, haha. Nevertheless, it's hard for us to personally know what someone's going through.. we each have different thresholds of sensitivity. I think that teaching methods of becoming mentally resilient is something we can try to utilize more often, because babying around is often counterproductive.
Have you ever seen someone soft succeed? Have you seen someone with low expectations reach the chasm? ME EITHER! So let's get to work.
You almost made me want to edit out that portion of my post! Excellent call to action, very nice, haha. 😂
Thanks for this very helpful feedback. Let me send you some HSBI.
