Is there a CPTSD community anywhere?
Is there a CPTSD community anywhere?
I've used https://reddit.com/r/cptsd as a support group for awhile. It never felt right to post such sensitive discussions onto a platform controlled by a tech company trying to monetize its content, so I was really happy when things like Lemmy began taking off. In my opinion, support communities belong in user-owned spaces like this.
I use Beehaw as a provider, and I thought it might be a good place to host a CPTSD community because of Beehaw's rules and ethos. I had a look at what's existing, and this is the closest one I could find. There's [email protected] (am I referring to that correctly?), but it's dead.
Is anyone aware of a good CPTSD community, or would there be interest/support in creating one on Beehaw?
Edit: I've inquired to see how this works: https://beehaw.org/post/554142

There's [email protected] but it has no posts
I don't know where the issue is, but I also can't seem to subscribe to any lemmy.ml communities. I think maybe that instance is overloaded.
It's down right now.
Start posting, “if you build it, they will come.” There are already several people interested in a CPTSD community right here in this thread, it just takes one to break the ice.
I’m building up an abandoned community from a couple years ago - so far it’s just me, shouting into the void. And that’s ok! When I started there were 73 instances on Lemmy, now there are 10x that many - some of those new people are bound to find our little outposts eventually. But if they look in and see no posts, they will pass on by.
Start posting! Start with general things like links to articles or videos or resources. It will work! :)
