- Does running the clan help or make it worse for you?
- How do you deal with long-term clannies leaving your clan? Like how do you keep up the spirits?
- Have you ever stepped down and come back because of mental health? How did that go?
- Do you ever wish to step down or try out a different clan? If you gave in and decided to do it, did it help you?
- Have you ever felt stuck (in a clan leader way)?
It's good to talk about these issues as it helps many many people out. Even if they just read messages posted. If my message has helped 1 person then thats a good result. Mental Health issues need addressing by friends or family or the professionals. Remember it's good to talk. Comprehensive Account Security
I've run a Clan since June 2005 and it's still going. Not as strong as it once was but still have a T7 Citadel. Had 300+ Members now it's a few less. So running it does help me in a way as I do struggle from mental health issues along with other health issues.
- How do you deal with long-term clannies leaving your clan? Like how do you keep up the spirits?
Our Clan is come and go clan. They are free to leave and free to join. Never held anyone back from leaving. Yes We miss them but life goes on.
- Have you ever stepped down and come back because of mental health? How did that go?
No as I'm Clan Leader and Founder. Not sure how to step down not that I would.
- Do you ever wish to step down or try out a different clan? If you gave in and decided to do it, did it help you?
No. Very happy with Our clan and how it's running. Could be a little more active though.
- Have you ever felt stuck (in a clan leader way)?
Yes I have thats for sure. When our Clan was very active and it once was. I struggled to get anyone to do any events as in host them. It was all down to Me as leader and I found that very hard at times due to long standing health issues. Thats why now we do no events. We did a lot of events during a weekend and had many many people joining including Jagex staff. Now our events are the Citadel once a week.

Mental health should always come first, I've been leading clans for many years and have only found peace in my current clan. Other clans always had cliques or drama. I found that for me personally, putting in too much effort can be very unrewarding which directly hurts the mental health (even more). Or being in charge of a clan with dramatic people in it, zzz.
It's good to have people as high ranks that you can trust, or that you know will take care of the clan in your absence. You can use Discord for communication outside of the game.
For us as a clan, nothing is mandatory, everything is super laid back, we all have a life, family, work, etc that comes first. Some of us disappear for days, weeks or even years. Completely got rid of the inactivity kicks because we get it, shit happens, or we get burnt out. I took a 2 year health break and didn't step down, maybe logged on twice a year to the same girls playing. But I talked to them on Discord a lot, as they are my comfort people that I can discuss anything with.
As for people leaving, you can't prevent that from happening, and you can always stay in touch if you were close enough. Trick is to let nothing get to you personally, it's a game with people who all have their own worries and problems.
I'd say just chill and follow your heart, you don't owe anyone anything, except yourself
Rid yourself of anything (or anyone) that causes you stress.
Hope you are well!
