Group name change? Thoughts

Hey people :)

It was suggested by a fellow member of this group that this group has a name change to something more positive sounding. Such as "Searching for happiness" or "Searching for happiness together" (I like the idea of us being in this together and supporting each other). So it puts more emphasis on getting better and the solution rather the focus being the depression. I think I said that right. I had to agree with this person for the most part but I wanted to know what everyone else thought. Any suggestions welcome but I would like to keep it very simple. Positive but not overpoweringly to the point where it almost denies the existence of depression.

Have a good day

Take care

Well being as there are all sorts of people that are looking for some sort of answers perhaps you might have to market test some names.

How about a call to action, for all those toughies out there

Depressed ? get over it

Shock value, for those who...... knows..... nobody understands them

Depressed ? tell someone who cares

Raw advice, cos we are on a raw food forum

Smoothie Depression Remedy

Spiritual, for all the tree huggers out there

Charkra depression chucker collective

Or we could just keep the name, and those who find themselves in a place that need support because they realize " depression" is a factor that is impairing their mental HEALTH, and "together " is a better place then being alone.

Haha. Some nice thinking really.

People can be as spiritual as they like and I support that but in here I'd like to stick to the concept of getting those carbs down and sharing experience. No tree hugging sorry guys. :D

So yeah. Smoothie depresssion remedy. That really is an interesting one. Very positive sounding, a little humorus and it probably would have intruiged me enough to click on it. I'll give that one some serious thought.

Cheers

I agree with Meana,

For the last year and half I have been close to getting out of the group because I know longer want to be associated with depression (had for 36 years of my life) but stay to support others. I would appreciate a name change :)

Thank you for your input :). Kind of forgot all about this.

'balance'.......'ups and downs'.... or my fave: 'I'm not depressed; I'm under impressed'!

Hmmm looks like im replying to myself in this thread as people have deleted their posts. Oh well. I don't mind talking to myself :D

Quite happy with the name really. Seems to be attracting the target people. That's the important thing :). Letting people know they're not alone in it

I'm still here. I usually hit this site once or twice a week. I will probably start doing it more often.
