Qualities in people

In the world we live in today it seems there is not much time for compassion or empathy.However it is seen on the texts of this scope forum quite frequently which is incredible,lovely and for me personally invaluable.I can be a total pain in the ass and get totally overly anxious,depressed and almost to the point where I cannot see anyone's point of view because I'm in such a dark space.Knowing that we all share simular issues and can be heard regardless of whether we are right in our own opinion really does count.Its interesting to think in however many years when we are no longer here that Scope Forum may still be here in 100 years.There will be a Poppy3million and Albus_2.5scope ( how funny!).No seriously though it's an interesting thought.

    What makes the Scope forum different is new members join for advise or support and once they receive it, they themselves tell their stories and offer advise and support to other members by sharing their experiences.

    You @Jane315STARX have received and given back help to other members. Thank you.

    Everyone matters on the Scope forum. There is always someone to listen.

    I am so glad I found it too.I find that for benefit advice for example this is the ONLY reliable source of information.But it's not just for that it's just nice to have somewhere to feel a part of and a place to belong.I don't have friends because I'm mostly unwell but can identify a lot with others on here.

    Thanks for the lovely words @Jane315STARX we do try to make the community a safe haven for anyone who needs it and I'm glad you've found this lovely place helpful. ❤️

    Though I'm not sure if Albus_2.5Scope should be a thing, one of me is certainly enough for everyone, I'm a limited edition. 😆

    I came here for help with the council, learnt about the changes in the benefits.

    I have stayed because I still need support at the moment with my personal circumstances, but hopefully I can also bring something useful to others.

    The helpline is there if we need it, I think thats great. Scope appears to have various issues covered in one place.
