I'll look forward to following the transition to Healthline. I often read their articles in my news feed, and am generally happy with them.

I have been active on other mental health-related forums in the past, and even served as a volunteer moderator on one. Most looked like Psych Central. They, like Psych Central, eventually had a dated look, and unlike PC, have since died off. I imagine Healthline could rectify that quickly. I am happy when forums aren't fully closed or go the Facebook group route, like some. I am not a fan of Facebook, for very good reasons, I think.

I would assume Terms & Conditions of membership (and other rules) may possibly be stricter with Healthline than they've been here. Though I like many of Psych Central's comparatively lax rules, there are some I don't. My marketing background provides a perspective that some members here do not have. I'd surely assume that Healthline is aiming for a wider and more diverse active membership than PC. That likely won't suit everyone here now. Cultures change. Other offerings improve/widen. Yup, we gotta move forward with the times.

With the covid-19 pandemic, support groups are definitely looking different overnight, including former in-person groups. Mind-boggling!

I support any online resource and support provider that is forward-looking. New times have come!
