What is going on with Anxiety Support chat?
The last two times I've gone to the Anxiety Support room for a group support chat listed on the Community Calendar I've encountered a group of people engaged in raucous conversations that have nothing to do with anxiety. They are rude, use foul language, call each other 'stupid' and other degrading things, and generally behave badly. On these occasions I've seen no sign of a Listener, Moderator, or of the person listed on the Calendar as leading the support session. I've never experienced anything like this on 7-cups before. Can someone please tell me what is going on? I feel like I've landed in the wrong chat room or that I'm not on 7-Cups anymore. Thanks.
@Tom444
I'm sorry that you had to experience that :'(
Since I'm not an Adult/Teen-Adult listener, I can't access the groupchat you're in so I don't know what's going on there. I believe you can fill out this form (Click me) if a mod is not present and you can always seek support through PMs with a listener if the groupchat triggers you.
*bump* @CaringBrit, could you follow up on the sessions not being led? :3
@PhoenixAsh for the event or in general?
@CaringBrit The ones mentioned are from the community calendar, Im not sure which they would be
@PhoenixAsh the event ones are up there too lets hope tom responds to my posts i already know why tuesdays arent led im removing them from calendar
@Tom444 I haven't quite noticed what you experienced, but I'm also not surprised. It seems chats are not always held at the scheduled time/chat room and/or in some ways it feels very "clique-y", which I wonder if that was what was going on when you entered the room.
I hope this is addressed. Thank you for bringing it up.
@Tom444 at what time did you go EDT to find no discussions going on ?and Day
@Tom444 also sometimes dicussions are cancelled at the last minute for very personal reasons we do have 1 whos on calendar who currently has no net thats the tuesday 1 4pm EDT but please do let me know if any others fail to host their sessions as i the STL of team
@CaringBrit
Hi,
It was yesterday (Wednesday) at 5:00 PM EDT. There is supposed to be another support chat in Anxiety going on from 3:15 to 4:15 today but I don't see it happening. Not a bad conversation like yesterday, but not a support session.
Note: I just checked the Calender and the one for today is no longer listed.
@Tom444 the discussion leader cancelled them on the dashboard so i had removed every single one that was cancelled and the one at 5pm EDT was moved to 7pm EDT on calendar i deleted the 5pm EDT one from calendar for the wednesday gone tom as the leader changd the time for the session due to RL
