Re: Ways to stay connected. - May 9th 2022, 10:16 PM

What I find helpful is connecting to people in really meaningful ways. Group chats can be great but often they have a huge volume of messages which can be stressful to keep up with, so I favour quality connections over quantity/frequency. Often face to face connections make this easier, but an alternative is 'asynchronous' connections when two people are doing separate things, but in the same space, just enjoying one another's company, which can also be nice. Sometimes just sitting and talking isn't the best activity so for example going for a walk together or playing a game online is a nice alternative to get together too.
