Bookmarks: Same project about people experiencing the same things as you

IN RUBRIC "IN BOOKMARKS" We talk about websites and online services - both useful and completely useless, but funny and amazing - which, in fact, should be added to favorites or added to the RSS-feed.

Same

More and more resources appear on the Web that do not exacerbate psychological difficulties, but, on the contrary, help to cope with crisis situations and find support. The project Same, which was invented by Ira Lobanovskaya and Nelli Astakhova, is one of these: the site publishes stories of real people who are faced with various mental problems. The journalist Alisa Taezhnaya became the editor of the project (you probably already read her landmark text about depression).

The main idea of Same is that the experience of people who have survived this is the best in a difficult situation. "At the moment of crisis, all the people around are the happiest, and your problem is the most hopeless. In fact, you are not alone," the project website says. Now there are twelve real stories on the site, anyone can share their experience by writing to the founder of the project.
