Bumping up for Waves........................

i'm ok, still quite disoriented.

i don't come or stay online much, not even daily, due to my connection being dialup.

Nikko, thanks for thinking of me.

Hey Missy! I have rarely posted/lurked lately - too interactive for dialup. Also, I have perhaps spent less time here than on the other site i told you about. i'll send email.

love

thanks for asking, yes i am ok. just not on much and...

frankly a little (no, a lot) at dis-ease with this forum secession. it didn't start out that way, but it has ended up that way. i am so sad about that, but mostly i am sad that people who find BrainTalk up, and see that as a positive thing, are told of this site - more populated for the moment, due to the downtime. It seems logical that newcomers or oldcomers would then also follow familar members... it is not so much of a "choice" at this point.

I appreciate wanting to inform ppl know where you are, ESPECTIALLY in light of the fact that Braintalk did not provide this information while down, so I feel it right that other members we know should be informed of this place. For that reason alone.

But there is irony in this. The irony is that in the Community guidelines on THIS forum, soliciting others to join a different mental health community is prohibited. Not only that, within posts, various links are ok - except to a different mental health community.

it was discussed in forum feedback how this forum could be independent and not "compete" with braintalk but under these circumstances... things, in my eyes, are leaning that way. perhaps it is just in my eyes.

that is partly why i have made myself scarse lately - that with the limited connection time. i have felt badly too, because i see threads and want to reply, yet i am torn by what is going on ... and it freezes me up somewhat.

my best wishes to everyone

Hello! Waving back. Watching South Park. lol

Dear Waves,
Nice to see a post from you....
I hope you are doing ok...are you able to get out much in your new environment?
I wonder if there are any community centers by your home now that you could drop in...
The library here has computers that are free of charge....several of the branches here have many many computers to use.
I think that when we had dial up there were 1800 numbers that we used to make the connections...so no long distance calls were made.
If I remember that correctly....
Well tomorrow is halloween and we have been decorating the house up for the trick or treaters....should be a blast!
Will try to get some pictures for you guys.....

Mari,

reading your post i wondered if you felt attacked by my post on BT about the links to here. That would be understandable - I'm sorry. I ought have talked to you guys about it first. One should talk TO people before ABOUT them. So I really must apologize.

I hope your post wasn't a sort of a goodbye. But it sounds like you won't be visiting BT, which I am sad about. On another note, I have wondered how you've been doing with the move... the stuff struggle.

forums............ I am uneasy in both places right now. Distinct aspects of each make me feel more comfortable. Here: you guys. There: forum principles. In the end I may have to follow dyslimbic, but I would prefer to stick around. Right now I am doing the grasshopper. Hopping.

My apartment thing and other things are all over me I wouldn't know how to really describe it. It is confusing too.

In short, I am uneasy and confused lately. my whole life is rearranged. off and on line.
