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

"Salty Dog" Apparently authenticity has always been an illusion; The pareidolia stain of a now evaporated false belief. And for years I dutifully built a ship to sail this sea of misinterpretation toward the shore of nowhere ...But, now, at least I know. I am the Magellan of my own indubit...

Hello across the ether Stacy... Hope this place offers some solace.
