though I dont post frequently in the psychotherapy board I have noticed that it is for anything to do with mental health treatment with therapists,, psychiatrists, psychologists, psychiatric nurses, social workers, counselors,..

but I have also noticed that a majority of the threads are about seeing therapists/counselors for therapy sessions. Ive always guessed that this is because people see their therapists more than they see their psychiatrist...

example I see my therapist weekly vs seeing my psychiatrist once every three months. So naturally if I was a frequent poster in the psychotherapy board a majority of my posts would be about seeing my therapist, simply because I see her more.

It would be interesting though for those who only see a psychiatrist to maybe have their own sub forum, kind of like dissociative has a couple sub sub forums.

did you know that you can start a social group and that once you reach so many members it becomes a forum.... Just an idea for you.
