there hasn\'t been anything said here that i couldn\'t have said myself....i believe one day this site actually helped save my life...on other less dramatic days...it\'s been a lifeline....thanks to all of you who work so hard to give this to us
This site is just awesome and I thank you Doug for making it that way. I have made some very good friends here and I need so badly to talk to people that are going through what I am.
I THANK GOD I FOUND YOUR SITE, IT HAS SAVED MY LIFE. THE ONE THING I WOULD LOVE TO SEE IS A CHAT ROOM, THAT WOULD BE GREAT. IT WOULD BE LIKE REAL GROUP THERAPY!!
It is exciting to actually see this site grow over the past few months! Congrats!

Doug, A big \"HUG\" and Thanks to u :P). This community has provided me with alot of support and friendships. This has made a difference in my life. You are truly \"Blessed\"!
ok and I will heed the advice of not getting too personal, meaning not giving out phone numbers, etc. I guess it\'s pretty basic- just keep the same rules I have laid out for my children. Thanks for the reminder in your previous entry.
DOUG,FINDING THIS SITE,IS WHAT IS SAVEING MY LIFE,I CAN\'T AFFORD GOING TO THERAPY,AND THIS SITE IS WHAT KEEPS ME GOING.I TOO WOULD LOVE TO SEE A CHAT ROOM ,BECAUSE I CAN\'T AFFORD GOING TO GROUP THERGPY,SOMETHING I FEEL I NEED .
Thank you, Doug, for the information. I was feeling overwhelmed by all that I was going through. Compassion is not my strong point, but I am always trying. Seeing how deeply depressed and troubled some are hurts. Bless them and bless you.
