Yeah, that doesn't make any sense. Wonder if the pros have been told not to post for the first week or something? Strange.

Well... it's not that busy, but we've currently got 15 topics + 121 posts in the Support/Crisis room, 13 topics + 97 posts in the Debates/Discussion room and 3 topics + 70 posts in the Random and off topic room. There are 22 people in our welcome thread- excluding the 3 (or 4?) mods and 2 researchers.

What about your group?

PM's are read? I guess that's fair enough, I've been using the PM function more than the forum I think.

I thought (might be very wrong here) that the pros were going to have their own group for the first bit and we'd be mixed in later?

I think that the pros are meant to be posting with us.

It says on the main website,
"We plan to have three separate discussion groups running at the same time. One will be made up entirely of young people with experience of self-harm; the other groups will contain a different mix of young people, healthcare students and qualified health professionals. This is because one of the things we want to do is compare how young people talk to each other when they are alone with how they talk when there are health professionals and students present. We will not tell you who else is in your group because that might influence the way you talk."

SharpTalk seems stricter than here on NSHN. Cause I got a PM saying that my thread had been deleted. Fair enough I thought but I couldn't understand why. Cause it had all the necesary trigger warnings etc, and it was basically the same things I'd been writing on here.  :trig: It was just suicidal thoughts etc. nothing horific and if it had been i would have put a trig warning.

Anyway... rant over.

I don't really like the format of sharptalk anyway , i prefer here .  :hug2: for nshn! lol yeah, well its hard to explain what i mean so....hmm.
