πγ» hi! :] hereβs an introduction to metanoia!
> `metanoia` [noun.] the journey of changing one's mind, heart, self, or way of life.
πΏγ» we are a fully sfw, mental health support community that aims to bring people together through shared experiences, and supporting one another!
π»γ» the goal of metanoia was never meant to be a permanent place, think of it more like a little quiet place where you go to when you need support. youβre welcome to come and go, or stay for as long as you like :]
π± γ» we have a wide variety of support channels, an active support system, and an active moderation team that keeps the serverβs environment safe and conducive! :D
πγ» my favourite part about the server is the members! :] weβre more like a family if anything and members have mentioned that they feel like home here. metanoia is and always has been about creating a safe space for people who otherwise might not have it, and it's only possible with our community being centred around genuinity and communal values of caring for one another, even if we are technically strangers!
πγ» i created the server with the intent of creating a safe space for anyone and everyone to interact. metanoia was created during the peak of quarantine, in late May 2020, and it was a very volatile and uncertain for everyone in the world. i wanted to create a space for me and my friends, and eventually open it up to anyone who needed a place where they could get the support that they needed. no one deserves to go through life feeling completely alone, and i wanted to create a space that would help take away a bit of that loneliness; to make someone feel like they belonged somewhere. and i really hope you find that here :] /gen
πͺ΄ γ» with that, thank you for taking the time to read this! i hope you have a wonderful day!
