Heyy @SunsetPainter,  I am Luie, one of the support mentors with Ditch the Label. I see that you're new to our platform and I wanted to say a massive welcome! Super awesome having you join our community. You can start conversations like this or even join other topics on the forums option. We also offer one to one support if you'd prefer that, if you click on 'Confidential Support' in the top bar next to blogs, you can send a request and one of the support mentors will get back to you.

Hello fellow earthlings!

my nickname is Ed Sheeran and obviously I’m a ginger😏

I love love love any kind of pasta but Mac and cheese will forever be my love🍝

I have 6 dogs(Missy,Oscar,foxy,willow,aspen,and angus) 2 cats(hazel and simba) cows,horses,goats,chickens, a mean turkey, geese, and peacocks! 🐶🐱🐮🐴🐐🦃🦚

I’d say my sense of humor is just weirdness 

my favorite show as a kid was SpongeBob(that tells a lot about me) I’m actually not stupid though

i overthink things a lot and have depression and anxiety but honestly I feel like everyone does

i also have a speech impediment but I’m working on it!

Hi, uh..I don’t know what name to use..I kind of hoard a lot of them. 
I’m from America

My pronouns are He/they/xe/ze/ey

I am double jointed in my thumb and if I had to choose a favorite hobby it would probably be Art?

I’ve got 3 dogs, Sally, Koda and Lucy. I had a cat but she went missing 9 days ago, her name was sushi.

just looking for more places to connect with people my age  in my community!

Yeah, it’s been tough the passed 9 days but I’ve still got some hope that she’ll come back. I plan on waiting at least 2 months until deciding to get a new cat (which my mom has already offered)

Hi @Coyotea

Welcome to Ditch the Label! So sorry to hear about your cat. Are you OK? 

Please let us know if there are any updates on the cat. Does she usually go away for days on a trot?

I’m okay right now, and she’s gone few days before but never this long. Cats are pretty resilient so I think she’s okay- but if she doesn’t come back after 2 months then I’ll probably get another cat.

Hi,

That's very mindful of you. Sometimes people will feed random cats exploring the neighbourhood and the cat decides to stay a bit longer than they normally would. This was the case with one of my old cats. Someone started feeding it - hence why he didn't feel the need to hurry back. I hope this is the case with your cat too.

Hi there Olivia, I also wanted to say a huge big welcome to Ditch the Label!! It's so lovely to have you here! I'm Aurora and I am one of the other support mentors here. 

Thanks so much for telling us a bit more about yourself. I enjoy Harry Potter, too, although I have to admit that I have only ever seen the films and never read the books 🫣  

You mentioned that you lost your friends to bullying. I'm so sorry to hear that! Would you like to talk tell us what happened? Don't feel you have to - only if you feel comfortable to. You can also send us a confidential support message if you would rather talk about it in private.

Welcome to the Ditch the Label platform and community @olivia!! ! I'm truly sorry to hear about the loss of your friends due to bullying. That can be incredibly tough to go through, but you're in the right place to connect with supportive and understanding people, us mentors are here too if you need space to talk about anything, we do have confidential support where we provide 1-1 support too. 

Harry Potter has this magical ability to transport us to another world, and I can totally relate to the excitement of diving into those books and getting lost in the wizarding universe. Do you have a favorite character or book from the series?

Baking is such a comforting and creative hobby. Do you have a signature baked treat that you love to make or a favorite recipe you'd like to share?

Feel free to explore the Ditch the Label community, ask questions, share your experiences, and connect with others who share your interests. You're among friends here and we're excited to have you as part of our supportive community.
