Hi everyone, I'm back.

[musicfan_xo]

Hi everyone, musicfan_xo here.

It's been a while since I was on the forums, so I just wanted to make a post saying that I'm back. However, I'll try my best to limit my time, comments, etc on here.

I won't bother tagging anyone, and I'll try to keep this as my only open thread that I have created.

I've missed everyone I've spoken to on here, and I hope to talk to some new people. I have been using my offline supports - my Psychiatrist, GP, Parent support of course, and a Social Worker. I'm in the process of finding a Psychologist but I'm having no luck.

Anyway, I just wanted to pop in and say hello, and also I hope I haven't upset anyone on the forums or anything like that because nothing was intentional, so I deeply apologise.

An update on me, I recently turned 21, can't do much with COVID though, it's a hard year for everyone unfortunately.

I also have a milestone, an achievement, I've been seeing my Psychiatrist for a year which is the longest I've stayed with a therapist. And I also finally have a GP I feel comfortable with. I'm on different meds that seem to be working a little but I still of course have my moments, but these meds I've been on the longest for out of any of the ones I've tried.

Other than that, please don't feel pressured to comment anyone, although it would be nice to connect with some people, old or new, but like I said that's okay. I just wanted to check in.

If you've read this and made it this far, thank you. Stay safe and take care everyone, as much as possible with the unfortunate COVID circumstances.

Thinking of all the Reach Out Mods & Users. I've missed everyone.

Hi @musicfan_xo  welcome back, and nice to meet you!! 

It can be a challenge to find the right therapist  that fits for you and your specific needs and goals. It's really awesome that you've developed that connection with your therapist 

Also glad you've found a GP that you feel comfortable with!

Hi @musicfan_xo !

It's great to hear that you are back! The forums are always open to anyone that needs support or want to support others. Congratulations on your personal achievement and goal. Your commitment and drive to keep seeing your offline supports are really inspiring and I'm proud of you! It's not easy to actively push yourself and actively seek help and support.

I don't think we've interacted before, but I'm happy you are here now. I hope you have been dealing with COVID alright, and if not we are here for ya 

Best wishes friend, hope to see you again on the forums!

Hey @Anzelmo @chillspace @Macaria , I'm sorry I didn't get back to any of you, nothing personal I just have my moments of not wanting to talk to anyone and/or just scrolling on the forums.

Thank you all for the kind words, nice to meet all of you too. Yes Anzelmo, I think we've spoken before

Hi @musicfan_xo 

No need to apologize, but I appreciate it just the same. Everyone has different levels of commitments on reach out, and we all have times when we just need to stay offline and have self-care by ourselves for however long that may be. Just happy to hear back from you.

Hopefully, things are going well with you musicfan.

@Anzelmo thank you, I appreciate that. Hope you're doing ok too.
