I have set up a  IM for our chat, please feel free to add the following addy

[email protected]

The chat is open on  Monday & Wednesday from 9:00 P.M. Until 10:30PM EST

This is subject to change.

Times and days will change, to seven days a week once we find another chat host!

We want our chat to be a respectable, safe and clean chat for everyone.
Therefore, we have these guidelines for members and guests to follow.

Due to the fact that a lot of people have trouble with seizures or can be triggered, we ask that you DO NOT use any RED, PINK, ORANGE, OR NEON colors please.

There will be "no profanity" AT ALL in the chat room!

 

Please remember....WE ARE NOT PROFESSIONALS!!! Our knowledge comes from personal things we have experienced from our own disorders or research we have read. Also, we have learned a lot of effects of different disorders; from the experience other people have shared with us. When someone is sharing their story in the chat, please be considerate to those people’s feelings! We like to have fun and laughter in the chat at times, but there are times that we need to be serious also. If you ever feel a need that you want to bring up a topic, yet the chat room seems to be in the midst of laughter and fun. PLEASE let us know right away that you have a topic that you need or want to discuss!!!

There will be NO talk of the use of illegal drugs directly or indirectly!!!

Any concerns regarding the chat may be directed to:

The purpose of this chat is to help support people who have Bipolar or other depressive illnesses also those who support family and friends of people with these illnesses. We laugh together, cry together, share life experiences, make new friends, and learn ways that possibly will help us to cope better with our own illness. When someone sees that we are getting off track, they can be firm with us and help to guide us to try to get us back on course again. We hope that you all enjoy your time here with us. So bring your coffee or favorite drink and snack, come join us and relax.
