Hi there  Nw,

It's totally anonymous that's why our names goes by pseudonyms. My pseudonym is Fear of Unknown. Hello there.

Hi @Nw if anyone posts something like the name of their favourite cafe, the moderators edit it within minutes. Since the business name can give away suburb/location

Just one example of just how anonymous they really are

Hi @Nw 

Welcome to the forums.

I've been on these forums for quite awhile now and could not put a name to anyone. They are completely anonymous. 

It is up to you how much or how little you want to share.

Most people know I have a husband, kids and dog, but that's it. I do share things about my mental health journey, but again it is up to you how much/little you share.

I hope this helps and you are able to feel comfortable on here.
