I've wondered that for a long, long time. I know if there is one thing that most everyone on these forums has in common, it's some degree of depression issues.

I know a lot of members probably deal with it in their own forum homes, because that's where they feel most comfortable. Still, if more people were to at least occasionally bring it here, it would create a path for someone from, say, Chronic Pain to help someone on a totally different forum with a problem they have in common. When people are depressed, it's often good for them to be able to surround themselves with at least a small group of friends who will understand, help, and protect them.

And more people would "meet" each other. I personally don't have a forum home, except for maybe Social Chat, because I have no diagnosis. I come here to Depression very often, just to check on it, but there's just not much traffic. Again, I wonder why...
