How to Use These Public Posting Boards
We can use these public boards as a means of collective contact amongst psychiatric survivour/ex mental patients.
(Interacting with the non- psychiatrized as well where appropriate) As with all sites like mine, this is a good way to get out of psycho-social isolation, feel connected to those with similar experiences, and to share what helps and what does not.
Please remember that this one is a PUBLIC board so that anyone can see what you have to say. I personally have access to your addresses and e-mails when you register but you do not have to use your real name or otherwise expose your identity. The server owner also has access to anything you post here as well but it will not be used in any way UNLESS you say something that is breaking the laws.
I want to keep my ‘G’ rating so that a ten year old could read this without blushing, feeling frightened or learning new words that would shock even me as an old lady... so watch your way of expressing yourself please. I do not have a lot of time on line so if anyone notices a problem with any posts please bring it to my attention by sending me an e-mail directing me, by title, to the problem post. E-mail me at:

Remove the word SPAMAWAY and close the space.
Please download the two PDF files below regarding how to use the boards and the software.
1. Posting in the First Person Singular Style
This one is about the simple method of use
2. Registering, Signing in and Using the Software
This one is about the physical use of the site software and gives a step by step direction.
Both are in the PDF files below and can be downloaded to a computer, flash drive or opened and read online here.
