Yup and I have to go to therapy for other people problems because I am an empath so much so that I know what people are feeling just by sitting next to them.... they don't even have to tell me....its a crazy life haha

Not me, but I know that I might not be an only person. I'm just lazy and love laying about and waffling about lol

I think the OP was looking for chat to help them deal with the stresses in life that we are currently dealing (or trying to deal) with.

I'm fortunate because I have lived with depression and isolation most of my life. I'm also nuts so have plenty of voices in my head to talk to. This gives me an advantage in a world without people or social contact. Most other people don't have that

I LOVE this lock-down so much! But, don't get me wrong, it does get lonely sometimes. I have friends over once a week for dinner since this isolation happened

Maybe a discord or a google hangouts. I know we have a chat, but with those, it's easier to get notifications for them imho.

I think it’s a great idea. Notification emails aren’t all 100%. It would be so much easier to get a quick answer and to generally keep in touch with members with something like a group chat on messenger/whatsapp.

Kik is a great app. I use it to talk with my friend from Germany.

Is there an area where we can just talk ? Like , talk to someone ? I’m having issues and have no one to talk to. Idk how to explain it. But I need someone to talk to.

Yes, you can talk to anyone here. Or you can send me a message directly through the chat.

Then you'll love the line I heard the other day..
" Don't talk to me... I'm talking to myself"

Living in the country... Covid has been more of an inconvenience..
I got lots of work to do on the farm.
I am in the high risk group.. so traveling to the city is not an option..
If I really need a distraction.. I go deal with my bees.. they are always ready to humble me, and sting my ass. :rofl:
