If you are in crisis, or are feeling suicidal, we strongly recommend you contact a crisis line such as the Samaritans, your doctor, therapist or a hospital immediately.

All sections of this website are moderated. Our voluntary moderation team works diligently to ensure that only suitable and appropriate material or conversation appears within this website or in our chat rooms. The moderation team are however only human. If something that is generally considered unacceptable (and is against our guidelines), appears briefly overlooked, please accept our sincere apologies. We request that everyone reads our guidelines in their entirety.

  • Users have the ability to edit any posts made on the Forums and/or Blogs, thus empowering them to delete all, or part, of the material they have submitted.  Individual user accounts can be deleted by Contacting Us.
