I work in the caring profession and I really go above and beyond for my clients. I work really hard for them and get great results. I also did voluntary work for years and still do bits and pieces now.

I'm a really good friend, and a friend of mine was suicidal a few years ago and I got her through it. I also held her accountable and made sure she saw that she couldn't risk getting that bad again. Another friend was really effected by his dad dying and I constantly supported him through that.

I trained someone at work a few years ago and they really developed well in their time with me. They got so much out of it!

    Oh, I did not know we are women only. And how would we know the gender of the poster?

    That's always the tricky bit, but often comments give it away. Tbh 95% of the men who've commented have been fantastically supportive

    So why keep men out of commenting? I mean, it is a public space, they can read it. I agree that they have to be respectful, as we also should, but supportive men are to be celebrated, not silenced.

    I hear you. Overall member feedback is that they prefer a female only space, and realistically, if we allow men then some will be poblematic. We'll have some problems and it'll be harder to moderate the group.
