Hi everyone - I’m finally back - im alive I promise. I’m usually more active over on Twitter but that is getting more and more unusable.

How are we all doing? I really need to spend more time here and make it my home as opposed to the dreaded bird app!

I still feel a bit unsettled on Mastodon if I’m honest. I love that my feed is full of brilliant toots, thanks to being able to follow hashtags etc. I also love that there are no adverts here. But I do find it hard to know what is safe to share here and what isn’t. Sometimes I just want to rant/vent, like I would normally do on Twitter with friends. Maybe this isn’t the place for that, but the point is, I still *need* a place for that. Hence why I still have a Twitter account.

@MediaLawProf @DrSandraDuffy I feel the same about the mental health community, many people made accounts here in a panic but didn’t stick around long enough to really ā€œgetā€ Mastodon. Now some of them are looking at Threads

@DrMutley Similar way as on Twitter - use the hashtag and ask people participating to use it too, with one person taking responsibility for responding to people’s replies. Its just there aren’t enough people to run it in real time like the chat so I used to do it over the course of a day. It’s important to ask other people to boost the introductory toot to spread the word

Hello Mastodon 😊 I’m shamelessly popping back here because Elon Musk has fucked my Twitter up again. I swear, if my friends all moved over here, then I’d delete my Twitter in a heartbeat. But I really need that connection right now. I can’t let it go.

Hope everyone’s doing OK. The kids are keeping me busy. Some days are harder than others, but I’m plodding along.

@RolloTreadway @sheepnik I felt a very strong sense of community with other mentally ill people on Twitter() but I haven’t managed to replicate that sort of solidarity here. Although I have met many lovely people I enjoy chatting with, I’m wary of posting too much about my mental health issues here

I made a locked Twitter account again recently so that I can reconnect with friends, most of whom don’t use Mastodon. Finding it difficult though at the moment. I much prefer the set up over here, and I don’t want to do any MH activism on Twitter anymore, so it can be hard to read some of that stuff again. But I also need to be connected with friends. I’ve been isolating myself a lot, and since B died a couple of weeks ago, I’ve really felt the need to reconnect with

@WarriorMummyD I thought you’d made another account, obviously I wasn’t sure why. Nobody’s really using the tags/communities and I have stopped doing as there was not much engagement

I went to delete my locked account because I didn’t feel like I needed it anymore, but Mastodon ended up deleting my main account instead (WarriorMummyDLJ) as both accounts were under the same email! I’m very confused, but sadly yes, I’ve had to make a new account & start all over again šŸ˜

I’m going to try follow people again by memory, but if any and peeps see this Toot, I’d really appreciate a follow. I will try find you all again. I’m such a dopey sod!

@sal Of course it’s OK! And everyone who wants to join is welcome :) How was the first day? There’s not such a community here as there was on the other place where was strong and there were some key initiatives and campaigns around what is happening with mental health services in the UK - a special concern was the growing use of the criminal justice system in what is supposed to be ā€œcareā€. We had a few ppl involved in academic Mad Studies
