(Debating whether to try to talk to someone there or not, I really feel like I need some serious "expert" advice, opinions, perspective and compassion that doesn't let me get too "negatively" focused, but that also can offer some "suggestions" of ways I can somehow be happy despite some upsetting things/changes going on right now. Might be too much to ask, especially since it does say not to consider it as "formal counselling" which is what I think I do need)

Well, it wouldn't hurt to try. And maybe "informal," would be all that you need (for now) - or would be better than nothing? Best wishes, either way--& sorry, I don't know any online therapy places to recommend. But maybe if you make a thread (assuming you are not well-versed in them) then maybe you can get some decent suggestions? I've heard names of some of them, of course. But can't remember what people have said about them, nor have I obviously investigated them for myself~*. :)

Thank you MrB, sorry I didn’t reply here before now but ya part of my hesitation in posting there is that I heard it is a religious kind of place. I don’t have anything against religion of course, but since I’m not religious I guess I just wasn’t very sure about that. I heard it would still be ok if a non-religious person posted there but I figure they probably prefer if whoever goes there is religious. Anyway still thinking about it but ty again for the encouragement with it, very kind of you! :)

That's okay, and no problem @JMG ! There are plenty of others, I just don't know what they are? As I've said, if you ask around or post a thread (asking such) - I'm pretty sure you'll get some suggestions. I know they have ones where they pair you up or try to match you with one that they think will suit you best & tailor to your specific needs. Or so I've heard. And then there are more that are like of the App, variety. And I'm not really sure what those entail? Maybe much less face-to-face, comm., so to speak?* ;/ Just don't know! :)

Ok, tysm MrB, very kind of you! :) I probably would not end up posting a topic about asking for “help” with suggestions of “where” to do that, cos I think finding such a place would require only typing in a google search to simply “get the info myself” lol. I kinda wish there was someone here I could talk to in a more formal/professional kind of way. I would be much more comfortable since I have been a member on this site for almost 14 years and all lol.

Anyway that’s probably unrealistic I know, what I need more than anything is confidence that if I join whatever “new” community or app that it won’t end up wasting my time, because I do not like wasting my time, not when I am putting forth such a huge effort as opening up to someone and “trusting” them with that info. I joined this absolutely terrible site a year or 2 ago (I think it was called “2 cups” or something like that) and wow did I ever not luck out remotely with who I talked to there, quite the opposite. I got only clueless, rude, thoughtless people, one of them was supposed to be there to “help me” and instead ended up being the one to dump his concerns on ME! I coulda forgiven that well enough, if he had at least shown the tiniest shred of gratitude for the compassion I showed to him, but nope, no “thank you”, nothing. Very rude, so ya, not a good place at all and I would never in a million years “recommend” it that’s for sure, quite the opposite! I strongly caution any/all who consider joining there, best to steer clear of it imo. If I were to join one again, wow would I ever need that to NOT happen to me ever again. Really need a break with a decent person who will be able to give me sound/wise/professional advice but with tact and compassion, not an easy thing to find that is for sure!

HaHa... that's funny what you say, about "typing into google," there~ @JMG ! As Witty always gives me a hard time about that (& how I never seem to do it..;)) / I'm sorry for your poor experiences as well at the other place. I'm sure it is rather hit or miss! I've only ever been a member of like 3 or 4 active forums, ever - including this one, here. And this one, by far - gets run or lapped circles around all of the others by about ten or a dozen times, if not oh so much more over, combined! :D So, anyway? I don't know who would specifically know, I'm sure some do (though). Though I know you said you didn't want others' help. Or anybody else's? So, I was going to say to try InnO. But scratch that~!* ;) j/k . . . : ) Later. mrb*
