Hey.
So a few years ago I used these depression chatrooms pretty much everyday without any problems. Lately I've really fallen down in the dumps and am on new meds which seem to be making me more miserable so I came back as I used to get a lot of support from the chatrooms. Only I came back 3 times, didnt get told off at all. One night I get the white screen of death on my tablet, couldn't do anything with it apart from wait for the battery to run out. I try to come back to find out I was banned, at a time when my dog had collapsed and was critically ill at the vets and I REALLY just needed someone to talk to. I've sent two messages at least asking for an answer why and got zero response.
As I have found much comfort here before I'd like to find another chatroom if anyone uses another chatroom for depression anywhere?
Thankyou
Banned from the chatroom for no reason

I think the mods don't really care about the chat room lately. I used to log in just fine, moved to a new place a little while ago, and my IP address is banned too.
Here's hoping they fix our issues.

It doesnt seem you have been banned, but yes there are other forums you can try, most sites are helpful to a degree. You shouldnt do sad because you are no meds, alot of people are. Meds make people better, and help people on the road to recovery, dont despise it.
