Most likely best if I just let you folks do your thing and stop complaining but that is the only time I get to talk with humans. I pray is is well in your world.

Hi there and welcome
You do get a notice when you first post (as well as in the site guidelines) that your first few posts are moderated. We do this to prevent spam. Your own new thread was approved within just a couple of minutes of your posting it ...here it is
http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/thread172844.html
If you could see the disgusting spam and porn that we keep off these forums due to our premoderation for new members, you would understand why it is needed
The chatrooms are ones we share with PsychCentral and not many of our members are active there...it is mainly just chit chat and not health related. Again, we prevent newly joined people from going in there as that keeps spammers and trolls out of the chat.
All these features are designed to protect members and they are explained in the terms & guidelines that you agree to when you register
I hope you find the support you are seeking
