Forums part of the Twilight Zone?

[Failed]

I have just joined (again) but same experience as last time. I thought there would be chats going on so I could feel not so isolated.  But it's spooky.  No movement. 20 mins searching nooks and crannies finding only rellects of the past - many years old. The couple that might still have occupants, on viewing see a couple of lines of a reply but no back and forth. No movement at all. It feels like a world that has been imprisoned in perspex boxes, bodies snatched leaving a autonomic screen that rarely changes. Feels like I'm the only real entity capable of movement walking the empty white laboratory halls staring through small, clear coated observation windows devoid of shape or movement inside. 

I look around thinking I've missed the manual and spy menu lines top left. Click. All of screen with long gone txts shift to the right and where a dropdown menu would appear, it remains blank white. TOTALLY empty. Ok so now I'm seriously spooked and must escape this eerie world that is on an alternative plane for which I have no key. 😔 

Brrrrrt 🥶

@Failed Hi friend, welcome. Maybe you would like to join us on the bunny thread. It is more of a meeting place, though you can address issues as well if you want to that. This way you will get to know some more people on this forum who are daily active on this forum.

@Failed 

I can see how feeling your posts are out in limbo, without responses may feel surreal.

it certainly took me a while to feel seen and responded to.

Online stuff can also be sensitive for me, I just crave face to face.

there are social chat threads, which you can join.

 I have found tagging members or peer workers can help generate responses 

take care mate
