Hi a few questions - from a personal perspective.

The following content has been hidden - Reason : Reason for questions - may trigger

i worry that if by the looks of the original post the trigger label for OD is being removed from Serious Discussion does this mean all posts of this nature should now be in Substance Abuse not Serious Discussion?

Whilst i agree that abuse of meds absolutely definitely should come under Substance Abuse sadly i have found the support in that Forum to be a lot less at times which leads me to feel forced to use SD more due to the level of suicide risk i feel/am at with it and not always getting enough support through SD so i would be concerned if that is the case unless others are going to be encouraged to read and reply in the Substance Abuse Forum more.

Or some people with severe problems i guess may find they miss out on desperately needed support at time here sadly!

Just my thoughts.Its if about really not just the trigger labels changing but are we trying to change where people put their posts too?

Or is that these trigger labels are being removed from SD because people should just know that kind of content will be there?

ive probably got a bit muddled here and sorry if this is a bit hard to understand - i know what im trying to say honest!

Thanks to the Community Team!Great job as always and i think its great your asking opinions too.

xx xx

PS Thanks for letting us know how to do a hide box - always wondered how to do this and now i know!i will try to do one now and to use this a bit more from now on.i like the idea! - Sorry im a bit late in the thread and off topic lol!

Also for my two pennys worth i prefer the word 'contains' as well. Think its a really good idea.
