Hello d0wnforlife. Things are going ok over here, not that easy accepting that you have a mental illness that has caused a lot of delusion in your life but things seem to be looking up. If you need any help pm (private message) me. Glad to see you here. Linville will help as well. Thanks.

Welcome d0wnforlife.
As you read the rules you will gain a fair idea of how things work.
Certain questions you have will be answered by reading - reading - and reading some more.

Hi D0wnforlife! And warm greetings!
I suggest you first look over the rules and make sure to read them again as you navigate this vast valley of peace and tranquillity. You will find out about what it is you are looking for. It takes time but believe me it’s all worth it. Welcome aboard.

Hey there, welcome to the forum. This is by far the friendliest forum I've been privileged to be a member of. Make sure to learn the rules, and there is much knowledge to be gained if you read read read. Hope you find what you're looking for!

Welcome aboard. May u find all u need.

the rules which we do enforce: http://ioplist.org/showthread.php?tid=1

Its like this. You make a welcome post. You look around. You make five posts a day. Get to know the family and how we speak.

At fifty posts you may PM. You may see new vendors. We have a category also of 150 posts cuz as u may realize, this is both the worst in real life and online that i have seen in almost 24 yrs.

Make friends whom will last a lifetime. Don't take advice from total strangers in PM. Read the threads and decide carefully.

Please never disrespect another member or a member of staff.

Become one of the family. More info opens up as you confide of your needs, ur illnesses. What do you think?

Welcome d0wnforlife

Welcome to the best IOP forum on the web in my opinion since it is so much more. Read the Rule Book First as they are enforced. This forum stays the best because
of those rules and it's also easy to break em without knowing you ever did. It may seem a bit "strict" but they are the reason this forum the best.

The Moderators here work long and hard to keep the troublemakers out and drama to a minimum.

You got a lot of great people here with a lot of knowledge and wisdom.

The best advice I can give is to Read, Read and Read some more and learn the language. Make a few posts out there under topics you are interested or start a
thread and let everyone get to know you a bit. You kind of have to build up your reputation or street creds as they call it in the city. Once people get to know you
more and more by your posts the doors will start to open for you.

Welcome again and hope you find what you need

Peace to all and a blessed day.
