You're right! They don't allow discussions about
the things that some people experience or have
experienced with their illness (bipolar disorder).
They allow you to talk about depression and mania,
what's going on in your personal life, etc. but if you
want to talk about past drug abuse/recovery...
suicidal attempts you've made, suicidal ideations,
self injury, etc. you are kicked out and usually
banned. Also you're not allowed to send PM's to
others (private message/whisper)!
You can't breathe and be yourself in there! It's
terrible! If someone is suseptible to being the
type to be easily influenced by others then don't
go here...you have to have lots of strength to get
away from this place...it's like a cult. : (
They're as bad as another place called 'The Port"
This information isn't to be mean to anyone, I'm
just trying to protect you all from being hurt.
There are bad people and bad places on the net just
like there is in "the offline world"....
