I think for the most part this site is very supportive. I have been on other on line support websites and in two of them the members seemed to be stuck repeating the same problems over and over again. In fact a friend of mine recently joined one of those groups and I asked her to print off some posts form people I knew when I was still there. (I did not tell her that I wanted to see if things had changed just that I was curious as to if the same people were still there so if I rejoined back up I would know some of the people) Well I haven't been on this particular site for 2 years and this person is still posting every other post about going into hospitals which when I was there happened everytime someone didn't agree with her, one person who had achieved "integration" was not integrated now and seems to have never been integrated for all post pertaining to her being integrated has been removed. and all posts found on others are of the same identical problems by the same identical people from when I was there and problems that had beenresolved for these people when I was there are no longer resolved. It was like everyone there just keep staying stuck, never moving forwards Dont get me wrong on the surface they are supportive and give each other resources but a majority of them dont seem like they are using the resourses and support for anything but poor me and if you don't agree Ill kill myself, go into the hospital or leave the site over and over again. Here I see people genuinely trying to help themselves and genuinely helping each other. People are posting resources and ways to help and people are posting what the results are from using the resources and help the y recieve here. Those that say they are leaving usually do and some come back, Those that have problems where hospitalization is needed do so because they seem to truely need it, not because of no one agreeing with them here. In fact when there is a problem here between people it is worked out here between those people having the problem , (Though it sometimes takes the form un necessessary bickering on the message boards which upsets some while others "sit back and enjoy the show." when it should be dealt with in PM or the chat rooms with the mods and admins help if needed. ) But over all this is the best on line support group I have been in yet and I have been in 5 different ones 3 of which are no longer on line. My thanks goes to Doc John and the rest of that administrative and moderation team for upholding much needed high standards for this webiste.
