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

Hey, Michael -- I'm trying to get out of the house more. I can stay in/on my bed all day. What are your issues?

Really, M-F-ers??? You don't RSVP to my birthday party, sent TWICE with an Evite and an Evite connected to FB, and 5 days later you invite me to like your effing event? And this from the least likely candidate to be rude. What the eff is WRONG with people? I invited 75 people to my party, 4 people R...

Hahaha, good one. Well, even more hilarious: one of the admin's -- unbeknownst to me -- told the head admin that if I was n't allowed to do so and so he would leave the group, and he left! We had a nice, satisfying little conversation on fb today about how this guy is just trouble and not constructi...

Boy can I relate! I've had therapists for the last 30 years telling me to cut off contact. My situation is a little different than yours. My family was VERY neglectful of me, and I kept wanting something from them. Sometimes I would get it, most of the time I didn't and if I complained, I was told i...

So around 7:00 p.m. I called the "contact" relative to arrange to "take a shift" tomorrow and I haven't heard back yet. In all probability, my cold bitch of a stepmother, who NEVER (and I mean NEVER) misses an opportunity to martyr herself, decided that I shouldn't be called, sin...
