For better or worse. Small scale or large. Personal or shared. What is an event you’ve experienced that changed the way you act, live, feel, etc. It could be short-term or long. Share what you feel comfortable with. Triumphs and tragedies alike.

    Going to a rave, taking ecstacy, and seeing above and beyond performing a Group Therapy set.

    I was depressed and had suicidal ideation. That night made me feel more connected to the people around me than anything else I’ve experienced. It was maybe a decade ago and I still think it started my journey of healing.

      A human, that I unfortunately didn’t enjoy dating because she was a ball of chaos - found herself in rave culture. And I was happy for that, but I also don’t think we were compatible. But I think she ended up dating another raver, so that’s pretty cool. I don’t really know if there were raves around me. I guess there must have been cause they are kinda poked here and there right? I went to gay bars and lesbian clubs, but I am not really sure how many of those are around anymore either. But I have an overall positive stance on them. They sound like loving communities as a whole and I am glad you found yourself there.
