Just put up your post (like you have) and hopefully someone will reply. Some people don't get any replies and there may be a number of reasons for this: time of day and time difference (US and UK ; I'm in Uk but i believe people from all over the world read and post and contribute replies on this forum), people's mental state ( people on here on the whole need support themselves and though they may wish to support others may not be in a place to do so), and many other things..... Main thing to remember is not to expect and "instant" response. The likelihood of someone replying very quickly is quite low as people browse and reply at different times. Hope this has helped.

Another big thing to mention is that you can look at all the "old" posts just by typing the "search" button the topic you are interested in. For example I was raised by a narcissist so the thing I may type in would be narcissism. Another thing is that I am gay, so that may be another word I may type in "search". Whatever your interest group type that word in. It could be anything from "bi-polar, borderline personality, cures, online help, depression causes, anything, whatever it is from whatever angle you are coming. There are thousands by now of old posts. You can learn a lot just through searching the site and understand more about your situation or the situation of others. Hope you stay. XX
