God only knows there are enough depressed seniors. And many of us do use computers. I think someone should think about starting a forum for seniors who are struggling with depression,.

On mental health websites I have seen threads for older people. But younger people cant help themselves from posting on it. I don't know why they cant leave just one teeny area for us. But many just cannot do it. Anyway, I long for a forum area for seniors who are grappling with depression
I did a search myself and came up with nothing specifically relating to seniors' mental health. Why don't you create a social group on PC, though? You can restrict membership and have your own forum space.

I found two existing social groups:

http://forums.psychcentral.com/group...racefully.html (has a forum)
http://forums.psychcentral.com/groups/over-55-only.html

Not sure if they're what you're looking for.
