Bio
Hi, I look forward to working with everyone here to help overcome social anxiety and depression, and I would also like to find and make new stable and supportive friendships here as well. :) For fun, I like to read, play video games, explore some of the neighborhoods in the great city where I live, binge watch Lost and Star Trek, and participate in coffee or dinner and conversation outings.
LISTENERS - PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING REAL GOOD BEFORE OPENING A CHAT WITH ME
If you are chatting with me to be supportive and friendly, I will welcome that. However ... please be advised of the following terms and conditions.
1. I WILL NOT tolerate SEX TALK or ANY ABUSIVE OR TRIGGERING LANGUAGE OR BEHAVIOR at any time during the chat!! Failure to abide by these standards will result in my seeking disciplinary action against you - this note will be your only warning because I will otherwise block inappropriate chats without any further warning. This is NON-NEGOTIABLE!
2. Please be advised that due to my stressful work schedule and possible time zone differences, I may not be available to chat in real time. Therefore, our chats will be like exchanging e-mails or texts, but I will get to replying as soon as conveniently possible. Also, I tend to prefer longer posts as opposed to one-liners.
3. I strongly prefer and encourage the use of EMOJIS when chatting with me, as I believe that online communication is much clearer when using them and we can thus avoid misunderstandings due to misreading chats as being sarcastic, angry, passive-aggressive. If you do not use emojis when chatting with me, I will be more likely to misread your chat posts and end up becoming more anxious than when the chat begins ... just FYI. ;)
4. If you are prone to ghosting your members, you should not begin a chat with me. I will likely take it that you are abandoning me and that I did something to cause it. If you need to leave for self-care break, which is completely understandable, please LET ME KNOW that you are doing so, and that it is not because of me! Just saying ... :)
