I'm a mentally ill person who has been out of the hospital for a long time. I'm also the owner of the Homeless Mentally Ill group. I'd be happy to own or co-host the group.

Are You In Need of Another Co-Host? December 23, 2006 7:32 AM
I still see a red pin on this thread even though there are two of you hosting. If you can use another host please feel free to add me.

I have tried most of the other sites for the mentally ill. I am diagnosed for over 30 years as a bipolar with chronic depression. So Big deal. The parody of mental illness is only enforced if you make a stink with your insurance company. All links are great, but I , in my opinion , feel not like letting my "talking be for public viewing." I would more than likely feel a lot better being the member of a group that was closed to public viewing. We none of us are professionally involved here on a group forum and shouldn't try, but anyone who wants to disclose a secret might think that it is not a public thing and not want to discuss their life openly. I believe that not all psychologically challenged individuals are willing to publicize anything that still might be detrimental to them if seen by others. I would like to see a more closed mental health group.
for this reason, maybe that is why this group is flagging. Instead of opting out, why not close it to public and then see what happens.?
My offer to own the group or at least host it is still good. You may transfer the ownership to me or make me a co-host.
I really have a passion for issues involving mental health.
