I have a suggestion.... www.teejer.net This is a website and chatroom that helps people with depression through a positive and caring atmosphere. Chat is FULLY moderated, and the forums cater for all ages; sexes; disorders and personality types. This site provides support, and information about how to access help for those who need it. Becky, thank you for calling all the people that used this site screwed up, obviously what depressed people need is re-enforcement of negative self-image. Not everyone is able to access help when it is needed. Good luck to everyone, and Chris? I hope the CIT goes well. Good luck. Becky, ok……

It was an incredibly stupid idea in the first place, a huge pity party for people with problems who needed medication and psychotherapy. And what good came out of it? Well, let's see. A couple of people offed themselves. A bunch of people who needed REAL PROFESSIONAL HELP wasted their time talking to a bunch of OTHER screwed up people. THAT was productive. Yeah, Chris should quit his job to moderate the forum 24/7...or HIRE people to do that...incurring expense and continuing to open himself up to potential legal liability just so suicidal people can talk to each other. If it's such a grand idea, why don't YOU step up to the plate and put up your own suicide chat site? What's that? You just want to hurl criticism without offering an alternative? That's constructive. That's positive. And what a great show of appreciation to someone who bent over backward to give you the forum you wanted for what, a year or so. Did you pay his hosting fees? Did you pay for his bandwidth? You oughtta frickin' be ashamed of yourself. Thank Chris for what he DID do for you, and move on...preferably to a place that can provide you with real counseling from real therapists. Oh, please, get over it.
