It's been a while since I last posted here on MyAnimeDesh... I don't know if this applies to the rest of the world as it does here, but April is a special month for many reasons:
And I know that many of you are probably going through a lot as much as anyone else, perhaps even right now. You may feel like you don't know who to tell, who to even trust for empathy, even from family. Honestly... I feel the same way too. Before I created this club, I had considered asking the MAL admin team to grant me Club Admin privileges for older clubs meant for fellow Bangladeshis; not many users really use the Club feature of the site, and I feel sad seeing so many abandoned clubs, so why not try to reduce, reuse, and recycle... except I thought it'd be cool to have a safe space for people like me, people like us. A safe space beyond people like me really, bringing other South Asian ethnicities and diaspora despite the negative history behind our cultures... that's what I want MyAnimeDesh to be, a club beyond Bangladeshi pride, one that can help share awareness of the little known anime/manga characters that fit with our ethnic backgrounds too. Because I want this club to be a safe space, I thought it'd be a good idea to make a mental health/vent thread. I know that there is still stigma about mental health in the world, especially if you don't live outside of South Asia like is the case with myself. But I believe we can break that stigma and bring ourselves together from some pretty heavy and lonely times. Who cares about negativity others may think of us when we share some of our deepest insecurities or worries right now? Sometimes we just need to disconnect from the judgmental nature of society and let it all out. Don't bottle your emotions if you feel you are overwhelmed and about to burst. We're here for you... I know I am. ★-⋆-⋆-⋆-⋆-⋆-⋆-⋆-⋆-⋆-★ Before I explain what this thread is about and what is allowed here, I must provide resources. If you are in a moment of crisis and/or genuinely feel you may hurt yourself, please be sure to check out these sites first:
Here, in MyAnimeDesh's Mental Health Acceptance/Vent/Advice Thread, you can:
Basically our equivalent to Casual Discussion's General Advice Thread. You may feel a little awkward or cringe, but you don't have to go through hardships alone. I'll come back later to demonstrate/share some resources I know... for now, I hope you all are doing okay ♥  Fario-P ✩ |

| I couldn't sleep very well today, I was worried about a lot of things about life before I could get even a few hours... At least I was able to get up just before noon and get a little bit of productivity in before work~ aurora_yuuki said: Thank you, it's good to see you online and in the club too!@Fario-P Good to hear from you again. Hope you've been doing great. Looking forward to getting along with you. |

| Agreed @CyberNinjaNJ-san! I'm not doing so well for the past week or so, but at least someone else checked in here~ |

| How is everyone doing this summer so far? Admittedly I've gotten reckless with my own health again... but there's always someone out there for me. They've been there for me lots of times, and they assure me that they'll stay as long as I actually try. I hope you all have that kind of person in your life too, whether it's family, found family, friends, or even someone more than that. :) |
