Hi

I'll show you around a bit, so that your confusion can end.

On the direct left of your screen, you will find all the pages and links with valuable information to visit.

What you see in the middle on this "message board Index" page, explains to you the type of threads. This is lovely because if you have a specific problem/question, for instance, about medication, you go to "Medications, Treatments and Therapies".

You go and look through what other people have posted and if you cannot find any help relating to your problem/question, you post a new post under that section and wait for replies.

"General posts" are generally for general stuff and not exclusively for CH topics.

Jimi and the Unsolved1 guy gave you directions for the chat site. Chat is dependant on how many people are online at that moment and in the mood for a chat. CH can make us quite moody sometimes.

As for CH.com, this site is open 24/7 in all countries and weather conditions.
We are here to exchange information and support each other. This is a very ordered site that allows us to distinguish between the different topics and search through specific related topics.

Hope that this will be of assistance.

The beauty of posting too is that it stays in the archives. We can go back and re read or look stuff up and that can be very handy!
There is a chat room too though and a lot of us use msn etc as you can see f you look under where our names are on posts.
You can always feel free to message anyone of us, we put that info there so people can :)
(Just don't expect sense OR manners when talking to me and we'll get on fine!)

Most of us the posts and there is always someone on-line and you will get responses pretty fast and also from multiple people so you get varied opinions. I myself have never gone to the chat room, I need to use word to spell check my posts first so I don’t get laughed at. Lol I am dyslectic so spelling is not a strong thing with me.

Welcome to the funny farm Jas, this is the best place to be for people suffering like we do, feel free to vent, ask questions anything you need this is a great bunch of people and we all feel like a family and support each other no matter what we are going through. Even if it is not CH related don’t hesitate to post it and many will help any way they can. I am sorry that you had to find us but glad you did.

Matt
