Would people like a check in??

Hey All... The board here is really slow now and I wondered if you'd like a daily post where people could check in daily... Say hi and just say how you're doing?


We have it on the Bipolar board because that to was getting slow and we wanted to regularly stay in touch


What do you think?..xo

Could your counter parts include the depression and anxiety groups also? They're pretty well non existent.

People can put up posts on any board that they'd like sweetie..... If you are regularly on those boards you could suggest it Sy...

I've found since Acuriousfish started this on the Bipolar Board people are commenting on it daily and anyone who comes on can start the post daily....

It's been a good way of staying in touch and we have gotten a couple of new members through it..... It has been lonely I agree.... If someone doesn't start it tomorrow.... I'll start it Monday then.... Sending big hugs... xo

i've never bothered to analyze why, but i've never much enjoyed keeping up with check-in threads, but it is kinda neat to have a way of knowing who is still around and the free reign to share the off-topic gee whizes of life.

i bumped my personal all time favorite check-in thread for the sake of giving newcomers a chance to see what you are talking of, suncloud. "a walk a day" is another example of a great check in thread. i'm adding a link to the post on the just-in-case.

i suggest running the post up the proverbial flag post to see who salutes.

Those who want to check in, can. We have one on fibro, and it's been posted nonstop for a decade, even if only 2-3 people respond. The point is to keep the board alive for those in need, and give eceryone a daily "venting space". Some check in once a ewek, some every day, some very few days, as life/pain/etc. allow.

So I'm cool with a PTSD check-in.

    Once again I've had a fever today. I'm not going to the hospital because that's a huge waste of time but I did schedule a dr appointment for Wednesday afternoon.
