I've been a member of ShareWell for the last 9 months or so. It has been a wonderful experience. I've gotten a lot of support from my peers, been able to get help navigating and working thru trauma I've experienced.
HOWEVER, due to very recent changes, without any kind of communication beforehand, ShareWell has suddenly implemented a very STEEP cost to access support groups and strictly limiting the once free sessions, led by people who are NOT paid.
For the groups that have always been free on ShareWell, the people hosting groups have volunteered their time. Some have spent hours of time preparing, planning out and structuring their sessions for each day. Some, have rotating hosts, based on the same exact structure of the group, to make sure it's available for their peers.
There are those of us, who are disabled, live in poverty, who are very isolated and don't have help, others have lived thru traumas, or mental health struggles and we have built these support groups into our daily routines. The sudden price tag, with very high costs, is a betrayal of trust to the members of this platform. I can understand needing to generate funds in order to invest in the growth and continuance of ShareWell however, this could have been rolled out in a much better way.
ShareWell has developed a strong platform of reviews, testimonials, and hard work put in by those of us who were not paid. By pulling the rug out from under us like this, it's not just a betrayal of trust. It's showing the members of this platform, who have devoted time and energy into growing this platform as well, it shows us we are just "guinea pigs", the testers, and now we don't matter.
I'm very disappointed and suddenly feel displaced, from the Mental Health support platform I had grown to trust.
