Feeling Down?

Find help in time of need

Like all others, we are subject to times of emotional lows - or depression - triggered by various events and seasons. Here are some resources from around the About network and Internet to assist you in finding support and help, for yourself or another.

COMMUNITY

Discussion Forums
Our forums are not a substitute for professional advice or crisis hotlines, but they are places where you can find community, someone to listen when you need to talk, and someone to listen to when you want to take your mind off your own problems.

Chat Rooms
Like our forums, the chat rooms are not a substitute for professional help, but they are places where you can talk *live* to others. The chat rooms are open 24 hours a day, every day; we have several scheduled chats, and if you want to chat with someone when there's no one in the chat room, try our Chat Buddy List and look for someone whose interests match your own.
