What happened to the mental health support village?

I'm sure a while ago there was a thread running for mental health support - a sort of supportive village where we could all come and talk about our mental health worries or just general life and feel safe and supportive. I posted under a different name back then and can't seem to find it any more.

Does anyone else remember it or have I just imagined it? Either way, would anyone else be up for it? Perhaps a yurt would be a safer, more comfortable place than a village?

Hi yurtees, how is everyone?

I could use a yurt at the moment. I'm in something of a transient living situation, and easily overwhelmed. I'm doing well, still eating, sleeping, showering, and seeing people, but it's a real struggle. I'm so terrified of going backwards - things were not good earlier this year - when sometimes all I need is a bit of a rest and a decent meal. I can get paranoid about it, in the colloquial sense not the psychosis sense. I call it "going", when I start to feel really ungrounded, and it keeps happening. I'm OK right now, but was feeling awful yesterday evening.

Hope everybody is okay.
