It's really great to live with hope in our lives. Here's hoping that DocJohn has much success in bringing to the table the "real" issues. May they hear you loud and clear DocJohn!

Congrats on this. Safe travels to you and I look forward to hearing all about your thoughts when you return!

YAY for PC and DocJohn!!!

Thank you for all the good wishes, congratulations and kudos. Your support means a lot to me and I appreciate it.

I'm honored to represent Psych Central and its members at this conference, and will do my best to ensure our voice is heard there.

Thanks again, and I'll let you know how it goes today!

Congratulations Doc John. I know that PC is for americans but the reach of the internet and mental illness extends globally. From the land down under........ thank you for the opportunity to participate with this community that has so much to give, all because you gave so much to your community.

Adding my kudos and wishes for a great day! No doubt that you will represent us well. You always do.

I'm thrilled that this is taking place and we PCers have a connection to it, in a 7 degrees of separation kind of way.

I live in the US but I don't see this forum as being for Americans. It is for anyone who knows the English language.
