I use to go there all the time, now that summer is here I haven't had much time. But when my TN was in a full RAGE I don't know what I would have done without the chat room. It's nice to be able to talk to other people who know what you are talking about. It's hard to find people to talk to that understand what it is like to live with the conditions with live with day in and day out. When you go to the chat room, no matter who you talk to or what they have, they understand somehow and they know that we are NOT just complaining! Type "O"s and Misspellings and all! LOL

I'd go to chat but there always seems to be a (0) after "Chat Rooms" which I'm assuming means there's nobody there.

Interesting. Thanks to those who have responded so far.

A couple of things jump out at me. Some have mentioned that they don't have the energy, or can't keep up. I've tried the chat rooms on a couple of other sites, and things moved WAY too fast for me. I didn't know who was talking to whom, what they were talking about, and if I had to leave and come back in two minutes, I was toast.

If this has been your experience, try the one here sometime!

The other thing is, I think everybody's waiting for somebody to "be there", but if nobody goes first, there will never be anybody there.

I feel kind of silly sitting in the lounge all by myself sometimes, but sure enough, somebody will drop in eventually.

Amen to your statement there Blessings! Everyone sit back and wait for the OTHER person to show up in chat room..no one will ever come in there. Months ago we would get sometimes up to a dozen in the chat room in evenings. Now we're lucky to get ONE !!
I know it's summer, everyone's outside enjoying the warm weather, not sitting at their computers near as much...but when you ARE, give the chat room a try. I did, I love it! But recently seem to be sitting there for half an hr or more alone, waiting for someone else to show up

I'm glad there are several chat "rooms". If there were 16 in there at once, I wouldn't last ten seconds. My brain would implode. I'd invite a couple to join me in another room. (Just whoever wanted to)
