What can you do here at Wing of Madness?
Learn
Several articles about depression are available from the Articles section. The NetGuide will lead you to over 1,000 links to other sites, in such categories as Children and Depression, General Depression Links, Bipolar Depression, Medication and Treatment Links, etc.
Communicate
There are several different ways to communicate with other people on WOM. Bear in mind that most people on this site in particular are more sensitive than on other sites, as depression often makes us hypersensitive. It's all too easy to hurt someone else's feelings. Be aware that your words are not tempered with a smile or a facial expression, and try to avoid saying anything that could be easily misunderstood.
Message Boards
A message board is similar to a bulletin board in real life. Someone will post a question or comment, and other people will post responses. A board does not have the same immediacy as chat, but it therefore permits more thoughtful consideration of your responses.
You do not need to register to read message boards postings, but you do need to register before you can post. You need a valid email address in order to register.
Chat
We have a chat room where you can talk to other people with depression. You will need to register on the message board in order to use it.
Contribute
If you would like to contribute comments and (in the future) articles, you will need to register. All of your information is kept confidential; it is not disclosed in any manner. For the sake of privacy, please make sure you choose a username that does not contain any part of your real name.
