I tried to make a survey which claimed it was free and then tried to charge me after I'd done all the work, so I'd appreciate any help and input from doing it this way instead

Also if anyone knows of a private survey system that is actually free with a decent level of functionality and might be better for this then please do let me know.

I think Google Forms would do the trick, no?

Anything you store keep it anonymous. No names, emails or anything that can identify the person. The moment you store 'personal information' you have to pat the ICO £35/year...or get fined a hell of a lot.

I suggest deleting all email after you download the answers too.

(One of the things they didn't tell me in therapist training. Surprise!)

I've been meaning to do this since this group started, but have only just been able to start getting my thoughts in motion due to limitations of my own messy mind!

I want to develop something supportive, and write about mental health and wam with the aim of helping anyone out there struggling in our wam community, but I want more understanding first. So I need to ask a favour please.

I have a set of 15 questions about mental health, shame, wam and loneliness.

If you are willing to answer, please email me on candywamcustard@gmail.com (not my usual email, just for this)

If any of the questions are not applicable, too personal or triggering then there is no obligation to answer. Also you are welcome to use a 'burner' email, not associated with your usual email or UMD account for additional privacy if you wish.

Your answers will be for my eyes only, and will not be published or quoted anywhere, it's purely for my own comprehension and so I can hopefully see the scale of any problems and if there are common themes with things that help mental health, and things that make it worse - stuff like that.

I have suffered depression and anxiety and I have ADHD, but everyone is different and I want to understand other experiences, rather than just myself and my experiences.

So yeah, drop me a confidential line, from an alias email if you wish to candywamcustard@gmail.com and I'll send you the questions

Thanks very much x
