Hey.
A while ago you said you were thinking of changing the chat because there were a number of people who are unable to chat in the current chat room. Not because of time constraints, but because their computers / firewalls wouldn't let 'em. You had a sample of one you were thinking of moving too (similar to the one on neurotalk). With all the promoting of chat that is going on... Are there any plans for a move??? |

Not until we've updated the forum software, which is first on our list. So eventually, yes, we plan on finding a chat platform is that more widely compatible.

Hi Doc John,
I would like to host an insomniac / other sleep problems (Maybe DSPS?) for those of us that are up late. My only concern is that it will take more than one admin / regulator given time zones. I would like to hear your thoughts on the issue! Thanks, Sigurd (I don't post on the boards but I am almost always in chat) |

JUST POSTING:
Barring Doc Johns Disapproval, I will be hosting an insomniacs chat @ 10pst on Wednesdays. Please PM me or start a new thread if you think the date should be changed or would like to help me with the time zone issue (Looking for someone in Europe and Asia / Oceania so we can keep it a 24 hour kind of thing until the last member subsides.) All the Best, -Sigurd |

Sigurd...no disrespect intended but may i ask how you are qualified to host a chat on insomniacs? what are your qualifications? do you have any personal experience of insomnia? and again no direspect intended but you have only been a member since June yes and made 9 posts....you don't think you need to build a rapport with members for trust first? |

Fair enough questions.
I have only 9 posts but I have been on the chat full time nearly every night for hours upon hours since the last year, plenty of people can vouch for my credentials in member rapport (Those that go on the chat). Tishie vouched for me on page 1 when I first brought up the idea. As for the first question: I have Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome and Insomnia and have had it for at least 10 years. I am usually the last one up in the chat room at night even when the Oceanic members are waking up. As far as qualification I do therapy on my college campus as well as having done independent therapy to individuals in the chat for the full year I have been here. I got the ball rolling on starting a group for Depression at the University of California, Santa Barbara. I have a long time achievement for activism in regards to my issues and others. However since you have brought up a legitimate point I will forestall the chat for now and hope to get the blessing from Doc John. I asked on the first page but I will try to establish contact via PM in order to assume some more legitimacy that may make some members more apt to join the session. Thank you for airing your concerns RozG, -Sigurd |
