I really enjoy this community to see how people in others parts of the world cope with this illness and how we all handle life in general, but The British Lung Foundation has been to good and grown so much that I now find it somewhat overwhelming and am searching for somthing smaller maybe here in the U.S, don't know i guess.

I do know what you mean. However, like me have you tried just using what you feel is beneficial to you. xx

Hi Tvernstrom, understand what you are saying I have been with BLF since it was just a forum on their webpage. Now it is a worldwide thing sponsored by NHS and open to varied social websites. I agree with you it has become too big and very impersonal now. I attend a group in my home town and the same thing has happened to that. There are some USA sites but they seem as big, I would suggest sticking to a group who post that you get on with rather than trying to cover the whole site. Most of the ones I communicate with are regulars like myself. What ever you decide hope it helps in the future, best wishes.

tvernstrom, first, you don't need to respond to all the posts!

Second, I just had a look for you. Is this one any good:

Hope you find something suitable to your need.
