Rules & Guidelines
The Journey Within users come from all backgrounds and our goal is to make our online
communities inclusive and safe for everyone to participate.
We rely on all members to help keep these discussion forums a safe space for people to share their stories, so the following
community values are to be respected.
SUPPORTIVE
We encourage our members to give and receive support, sharing their stories and experiences in times of distress and wellness.
RESPECTFUL
We respect where members are on their recovery journey, and listen without judgment.  Appreciate that others may have an opinion different from yours.  If you see abuse, report it to us using the ‘report post’ button on the forums.
EMPOWERING
We empower our members to make decisions that support good mental health and wellbeing.  Don't hold back in sharing your knowledge – it's likely someone will find it useful or interesting. When you give information, provide your sources.
SAFE
We support our members to talk openly about difficult subjects in a safe manner. Please don't post personal information that you would not be comfortable sharing with a stranger.
FRIENDLY
We approach all our discussions with kindness, warmth and always assume the best intentions. Welcome new members, share your tips or show them how to use the website. If you are a new member, make sure to introduce yourself – our community is waiting to meet you.
