Darth_tater_totsTake care of yourselves
EmsHeartFriends,
I would like to thank each and every one of you for being part of this community. I hope, more then anything, that you have found some measure of help, solace, distraction, or otherwise a glimmer of light in your time spent here.
I thank you for sharing parts of yourselves, for being vulnerable, for venting, for being strong enough to seek help.
I thank you for sharing your kindness, your experiences, your advice, and taking the time to help others.
I hope that every person reading this understands that regardless of if you were venting, helping, here for distraction or all of the above - your very presence will have inspired, helped, and allowed others to be in a better place
then they had been.
I did not start this community, I joined as a member like all of you. I joined because I have issues myself that I have been working through, and found myself believing in what this community stood for.
Through my time as a member, then as a moderator, and now as its Sheppard and owner, I have always been amazed at how much of a positive, helpful force this community can be.
Its hard to quantify the journey I have personally taken in the time I've been here as a member and now. When I joined, I was.. to put it mildly.. a mess governed by traumatic events with practically no confidence and basically living in a kind of survival focused auto pilot. This chat has been a place of solace and distraction when I needed it, this GC became a source of validation, a place that I learned I CAN. A place that I began to learn how to find a sense of positive self worth. A place where I began to understand that there was more to 'me' then what others had tried to sculpt me into.
Today.. well now, as of this message, I am closing the chat, because the thought that Reddit is just going to make it vanish without a trace, without warning - is unbearable to me. (Because you know, they STILL have not given an official date or time besides "Mid November")
The spirit of this GC and its purpose will continue on in our well established Discord Server "No Thoughts, Just Vibes". So this is not really a goodbye, this is just my way of grieving the loss of something I put part of myself into building, and that has helped me grow and heal as a person.
I do know I'll lose some of you that either can not use - and to you all I can only say:
I hope your days are filled with solace, fun, happiness, success, and you are allowed to flourish. Remember always that no matter how bad, or good things are - you are always stronger then you think.
If ever you doubt yourself or find yourself suffering, remember that the villains in your story should NEVER be allowed to see you fall. You've got this. And the bad shit will pass so long as you keep looking for even the tiniest sliver of light, I promise.
I love you all. Remember to be kind to yourselves and each other. Your worth it, and deserve it.
-Bridget Emily

_NyckWhen I first started r/NoOverthinking I had no idea how much of a home this would be for so many people. I am so blessed to know that I have positively impacted others and provided a safe place for you to be. This community has taught me more about empathy, vulnerability, and strength than I ever expected. It reminded me that none of us are truly alone in what we feel, even when our minds try to convince us otherwise.
I want to thank the moderators for keeping this place running and keeping the heart of the community alive even when things got difficult. I also want to give a special thanks to Ems for taking over NoOverthinking and keeping its spirit alive better than I ever could.
Watching this community grow has been one of the most meaningful things I’ve ever been a part of. Every post, every late-night comment, every person who felt seen here, it all mattered. Even if life pulls us in different directions, I hope this place reminds you that your thoughts don’t make you broken, and your feelings don’t make you weak. Thank you for letting me be a small part of your story.

nataalliiee2005i wasnt able to make it to the gc shutdown unfortunately, i had my first day of substitute teaching so i was at work. i just wanna say i love you all and genuinely thank you for everything. i was very socially akward when i first joined and this team has helped me show my true self to people. i love every one of you here so so much, and i know im not always the most active but i am always thinking about you guys. i love you all and even though this is sad, let continue to help people no matter what ❤️
BallerSasquatchI just want to say I appreciate every single person that has come through here. When I first joined here, I was not in the best headspace, and I genuinely felt a lot better talking to the people here. Whether it was for advice, general talk, or silly moments, it improved my day. Ik this is the case for a lot of people as well, whether they appeared only once, or were regulars. It has been awesome to be a part of this group, and I will miss everyone from here. I hope everyone is on the up in life. 🫶🏻 Let’s keep spreading positivity outside of this chatroom!

No_Customer739To all the members and moderators of the GC,
When I first joined this Group Chat, I was truly at the lowest point in my life. This community immediately became the safest, most encouraging, and most validating space I had ever experienced. For the first time, I saw so many different perspectives, which opened my mind and helped me find hope. I can honestly say that this GC saved my life.
Before I became a mod, and certainly afterward, I was always amazed by the people here. To the regular members, thank you for supporting each other and being so encouraging. And to the mods, who showed up every single day, often despite navigating their own challenges, your dedication to helping others was remarkable and very inspiring. During a period where I should have been depressed, I found myself laughing so much at the jokes and the silly moments we shared.
It has been an absolute honor to be part of what I genuinely believe was the best group chat on Reddit. I am profoundly grateful for the friends I have made and for the sense of belonging this place gave me.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the kindness, the perspective, and the strength. Let's carry this unique, encouraging spirit with us to the Discord and continue to be there for each other.
