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

Hello Friends,

{Edited}

August 24 - As a test, I removed and swapped the first pix for another- a nice butterfly.

It's 480x391 in size, file size is 61K.

Still nice and big.

Taking a chance here. (AI & facial recognition and all..)

Apparently, the board lets you post images that are 256K and below.

Here's one of me when I was younger, apparently happier, and dot-matrix printers were a thing.

A worthy brother!

Wow, awesome! Add that to my family album!!!

This photo was me at my worst. 39.5kg. Close to giving up.

Really glad you didn't.

Onwards.

Beautiful photos!

Can a photo be posted & then deleted in a few days? Asking for a friend.

Hello Rivergirl,

It seems so. I edited my initial post just now to swap pictures as a test.

BTW - The idea came from Mental Fairy to Oak - not to post selfies, but when feeling low, perhaps to post a pix of something of interest in the moment.

(I tried it the other day - took pix of some beautiful flowers that caught my eye outside, first thing, but later in the day felt so goddam-awful - lousy night's sleep - that I didn't get around to posting. )

Nothing good could come from this look. Made me smile after a frantic afternoon and feeling bad about myself for some reason.

Hello Mental Fairy,

Yeah, the "some reason" part, right? I'm sure it was stress related. I've seen things work that way for me.

So - Cats. Not really a "cat person" myself allergies and all, but they can be entertaining...

I posted this cat herders commercial elsewhere, you must take a look. I laugh out loud every time I see it.

And the New Yorker cartoon where Batman says to Catwoman -

"Surrender, Catwoman - Your nefarious plan to flood the secret worldwide web of computers with pictures of cats will never work."

(Laughing as I post this)

That is absolutely awesome! That made my day.
Thank you
