I love the images you’ve chosen to go with this piece Ellen. And I totally understand about feeling exposed publishing outside of the chain. I felt exactly the same about the post-natal piece, but I think that so many people will be grateful that you did.

I felt the same after publishing my piece about loneliness that came out the 1st week of The Chain, but all the responses were very positive. I think those who needed to hear/read this will appreciate you posting it, and for anyone else, they don’t really pay so much attention, do they? Happy to read you, Ellen. And to be part of The Chain with you.

It was lovely to read this again. I agree about feeling exposed when you post pieces outside of the Chain but l feel it’s important to do this. Your images are perfect for the piece. So much of what you say applies to me. I think we’re duped by the social media hype about friendship and if people were honest with themselves they’d agree with you.
