SA got me through my initial realisation I had some pretty crippling depression that I had been shying away from facing and finally started seeking treatment. People were often an open book about their lives and personal struggles in the oddest of threads that it was the first step in being able to talk about it openly in my real life. More than that though, is seeing the evolution of the forums and what it's done for others. I'm a white, hetero, cis male, I've never really needed to struggle for anything in my life, and if I did, there was always an official support network in place for me. But I saw in more and more posts over time the discussions of others from gender, sexual and racial minorities come out with their stories and feelings and pushed me to support, advocate and educate myself for others, particularly in fields and life experiences I'd never otherwise have encountered. SA can be good people, and it's good to see it helping others when they need it.
