It's helped me transform as a person. I was at a really low point in my life when I created this profile, and having my posts out there for the world to see was a massive weight off my chest. I just felt like I had kept so much inside for so long, getting my thoughts out was almost cathartic.
The therapeutic aspects of this site are not as relevant as they were on EP, but there's still a lot of benefit in just feeling heard. I see a lot of people using this for healing as well, so it definitely provides some value. Even if a lot of it is people just commiserating, sometimes there's absolute gold in the comments and I can take away some insight from paying attention to other people's struggles
