I can't use a chat and my posts don't show up until the next day or days later. I need help NOW.

Lonelyandsuicidal, it looks as if the reason for this is that you've just joined. The first few posts are moderated so they will appear later rather than immediately when you try to post them.
However, you should be fine posting immediate messages now, as you've already written the first four messages that were moderated. It should all be instantaneous now.

Maybe you can try one of the chat rooms if you want to talk to someone. I've only tried it once so I'm still a novice and can't advise on them very well, but have a look.

I hope you're feeling better soon! If you want to PM me, please do. Otherwise, keep posting if you feel in need of support!

I think you need to have about 6 posts before you can use chat. I would be happy to talk to you and you can PM me. I hope you have a therapist or someone IRL to talk to. Here is a good suicidal website:

I agree in a way. When we need help, as I do too, this forum is not enough. Seek out others, face to face. A therapist, a depression support group, real people who share what we do. I am seeking out depression groups, meetings with others who can understand. A therapist is not enough for me. I have never done this and I am 47. It may help you. I believe isolation furthers negative feelings. These forums are not the cure for depression or any other emotional issue.

You are not alone.

Hey there, as others have said this is not an place to come in an emergency - if you need please call a hotline or emergency number.

As for your posts, they will start to show up immediately once a moderator has approved at least 5 posts. You'll be able to get onto chat at that time as well.

Hope you are feeling better
