Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
Hi Folks!
You may or may not know me, but my name is Jesse and I work here at DailyStrength. I'm writing to let you know that we're looking to add a Community Leader to the Depression Support Group -- so we'd like to know if you want to become one!
In case you're not already familiar with what Community Leaders do, they're vibrant members who volunteer to greet new folks to the group, offer positive and constructive advice in discussion posts, and help steer negative topics back on track (and occasionally close a clearly abusive discussion post, which is very rare in this group). You can learn more by clicking here:

If you have any questions or are interested in becoming a volunteer CL, please send me a private message with the subject heading of "CL for Depression". DS staff will then review the candidates.
To be considered for the role of a CL, we'd like to ask that you:
1. Be okay with having a profile privacy setting of either "Everybody" or "DS Members". That way new members can greet you back!
2. Have not received prior warnings from DS for violations of the Rules of the Road.
3. Have been an active member of the Depression support group for at least six months.
I'll leave this post up for a few days, and I might bump it up every once and a while so it stays on the main page.
I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. :)

Now, .. let us help Mr. Jesse out .. and come up with nominations or volunteers ... via the link JESSE posted.
Thank you .. each one of you.
SkiesOnFire does have a good point by the way.
As many of you have already stated, both Beachside and WallyBear would make good CLs. A lot of other people here would as well.

As I said .. this is JESSE's thread .. so .. maybe he has a different view. I dunno.

I don't even know if any of them want to be CL. But, that's all I know.
MAX, do you want your employer to come here and read all your 'anonymous' posts? If so, that's cool. I'm just sayin.
