I am very proud of you CJ for your accomplishments. From someone who also struggles daily I know sobriety is not an easy task.

TWLOHA, today FGCU UChapter held a "Valentines day doesn't have to suck" tabling event, it was such a hit. Every time I get to sit behind a table, or event with the TWLOHA name on it I come across the most valuable experiences, most life changing moments. I can't thank you all enough for making it possible to experience these things from my campus, and have the opportunity to also spread these experiences to other students on campus.

Has anyone else been single forever? =p

What advice do you have for us in general???????

We know it can be stressful, but just keeping positive and encouraged is key. You guys are all doing great. No matter what, you won't fail. You're participating in a campaign that has never been done before and you're bringing the TWLOHA message to your school.

If you visit the group we created on Buzznet you can communicate with other organizers as well to keep getting ideas.

My favorite part of Valentine's Day is all the candy that goes on clearance on the 15th. Makes it suck less when i think of that.

My man!

Yup

I was really moved about the news TWLOHA posted about Black Males and Suicide. As a young adult diagnosed with bipolar disorder/depression, how can I reach out to other young teens/adults suffering from these disorders, when so little is known about mental illness and the multicultural community?

Hi there everyone[: Glad to see such a turnout already! <3

My question to TWLOHA: are there many volunteer opportunities here in the UK? I'd love to get involved but don't know how best to.
