Good meeting today - two newcomers which I found a little intimidating but it’s always good to see new people. However, one of those attending had noticeable self harm injuries on her forearm. Didn’t say anything, obviously but I recognised such as I’ve known others who have survived similar.
I’m caught between wanting to help and not getting involved because it’s none of my business. 😢 What advice would the Fediverse have for me or someone in my position? #AskFedi
