YOU ARE NOT ALONE - A companion online community discussion board for The Mental Illness Happy Hour podcast with Paul Gilmartin

Thank you Manuel, I'm making some progress with a found Python script that allegedly traverses a whole phpBB forum thread and downloads the text in csv format. I'd only have to add my own images later. I'm still torn about where to continue posting. Somehow it feels like getting off this train (for ...

people were only interested in getting near Paul's personal dynamism, which is understandable. Yes, I can get that. It's funny but I've never missed Paul since I came here after he left.

Anything can be used either as a tool or as a support. Nothing is precious or essential. You shall not compare yoursel...
