Hello cusack10: I'm sorry you are finding PC to be less satisfactory for you recently. The Skeezyks is just an old recluse. So I don't pay much attention to who's left. My experience has been that the more one posts, & replies to other members' posts, the more connected to the PsychCentral community one becomes. However it is true, as you wrote, that people do seem to come & go. I'm sorry so many of them have been your friends. I don't have any alternative suggestions for you. PC is where it's at for me...
