If we decide to cancel our account, how do we do that?

And if we decide to come back at a later time, can we have the same user name back??

Thanks....

Why not just take a break from the site when you want to, or simply only come when you want to? When people cancel their accounts it leaves holes in the forums and in people's hearts. Especially if you think you may want to come back, what about leaving your account and maybe adjusting your settings to show that you are away or not receiving messages?

You are right - I probably just need to take a little break. I may wake up tomorrow with a whole new perspective

Thanks.

i've heard it's not usually a good idea to make any big decisions when you're in a bad place. i'd definitely miss you if you leave.

you are a valuable and valued member of this community.....
I think there would be a protest if you decided to leave.

By all means take a break and take care of yourself, but don't leave us forever!!!

EM, I hope you won't leave for good. I hope you feel better. If something here is triggering you, maybe a break would help. But I don't want you to go away forever!!

Can't a person delete their account themselves ?

[(JD)]

No, deletion of accounts go through the webmaster. It's a technical thing.
Plus, considering it's a mental health support site, it's probably a good thing for the member... since sometimes members become overly upset, or depressed and decide to leave...when they really don't want to, and they really need support at that very time.
This method, I guess, gives admin a chance to discuss it with the member, and give them direct support at the time.

I think everyone needs to take a break from time to time. Just bookmark the site, write your screen name and password down somewhere safe...and take your break. There'll be members waiting for you when you return.

((Treehouse)) - I agree with Sky and Rapunzel that you could just leave your profile as is or perhaps if you want to take a break - you could disable the profile messages for now. I've known members who need a break, so they put a note saying "taking a vacation". Or you could leave everything like it is and don't touch a thing. This is alot easier than removing your account and then changing your mind and starting all over again. I agree some members make sudden decisions, only to feel better the next day LOL.

I want to delete my account, because I think my husband is looking at it and that makes me uneasy.

Just take a break Tree. We all need that from time to time. You can come back, or not, whenever you are ready. Hope you are well.

ummmm... if you look at the far left corner, there is a date when each post is made.....
treehouse made this post in March of 2009-- over a year ago.
She's still here so it looks like she decided to not leave last year.

just wanted to help put some of your minds at ease...... it might be a good idea to always look at the far left and see when the original post was made.....

peace to all
