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.
I would like to know if there is anything you can do about people being able to google our user names and being brought right here to DS and able to read what ever we posted or wrote on our page. This is a big consern to those of us that are affraid that our family or friends will invade our privacy, and snoop here. I would cause us big problems at home. I don't know if you can do anything about this, but if you can, could you please take care of this?
very shortly (1-2 weeks), we're launching a new feature that will allow you to limit access to your journal entries to a) you only, b) you and your friends, or c) everyone. using that tool, you can stop google or anyone else from seeing your posts if you don't want to.
we are also thinking about ways to restrict google, but it's a complex issue as it's also the primary way that new folks in need find us. we can talk more about that lately.
i hope you'll find the journal privacy features a good step in that direction.
Seriously though, thank you Doug, that feature would have saved me a lot of trouble the last couple of weeks or so.
You've done such great things here at DS *and* at Yahoo -- between all your endeavors, I'd say that about 70% of my daily life is Doug-influenced...and all for the better!
Thanks for that big brain of yours...and your generous heart. Looking forward to Monday -- please do come chat with us for posterity's sake? *laugh*
Best,
Lisa
