    Hi @Elysium :) It's been good to see you around on some discussions already! This is the discussion I made for you. 

    I hope that you can find some other people to connect with. It's really great to hear that you're interested in supporting other people as well, as that's a big part of what we try and do here on the community.

    Do you have any particular interests or hobbies? Telling us a bit more about yourself might help you to connect with other members you have things in common with.

    Hey @Rechnin

    Thanks for your response. It is great to hear from you.

    I am sorry to hear you are feeling lousy. Would you like to talk to us about what is making you feel lousy?

    I am well thank you. Though I am sleepy as I am still adjusting to coming back from the holidays  :)
