Sharing Circle is a Lifeline for Many - Lolowise475
Welcome back community,
I am back with a new story to tell about how Sharing Circle helped a participant. Last week, @Okeyyyy shared their experiences in the Sharing Circle here!
This week, @Lolowise475 joined us to share their experiences in the Sharing Circle. Lolo is one of the regular participants of Sharing Circle and joined the community in January 2018.
Lolo has been part of sharing circle for over a year, and found comfort and support in the Sharing Circle. They shared that how Circle is a safe space where individuals can openly share their experiences. The sharing circle has become a cornerstone for Lolowise's emotional well-being.
Lolo praised the sharing circle's caring and supportive atmosphere, noting that it provides a much-needed outlet for sharing their day and receiving valuable feedback and encouragement. The 24/7 availability of the Sharing Circle is a significant advantage, allowing for flexibility in participation. However, they would love to see more consistent hosts to continue to maintain the circle's structure.
The impact of the Sharing Circle on Lolo's life has been pivotal. They have experienced reduced anxiety, loneliness, and depression, attributing these improvements to the ability to self-regulate and gain fresh perspectives on challenges. The circle has also been a source of warmth, comfort and practical suggestions and coping strategies, fostering a more positive mindset.
They describe the experience as dependable, supportive, and empowering, highlighting the circle's role in their personal growth and resilience and encouraged others to explore and try the Sharing Circle.
Lolo also highlights the importance of peer support groups in mental health. A space for open communication and emotional connection, the Sharing Circle has proven to be a valuable group chat for anyone seeking support and understanding.
I appreciate Lolo for taking the time to share and open up about their sharing circle experiences and I believe as we continue to support each other, we will progress and heal together.

Loloooo, it's been forever since I've seen you around, but that's partially on me not frequenting the chatrooms s often lately, but it's sooooo good to see your name here and to hear about your experience with the sharing circle.
I remember from my early days how often you attended in the sharing circle, and as difficult it was to begin the sharing in a group, you did, plus you go that extra mile always in staying in the room to support other participants, sharing kind and encourging words with everyone.
Superr happy to hear about your positive experience of participating in these circles and hope you continue to bloom!❤
@Lolowise475 you've been with the community as long as i have!
i'm so happy to hear how influential the SC has been on you! thanks for divulging your experience and shining a light for others to follow to try the SC too!
This is wonderful to hear! I've haven't been to the sharing circle yet 😅 I'll have to check it out one of these days
