We invite you to join us.
If you have been in a chosen or unchosen relationship with a narcissist or psychopath, our sites will provide a learning and support environment of compassionate understanding, where we help each other learn, adjust, heal and ultimately reclaim our lives and peace of mind. Please join us on the message board whenever you feel comfortable.
Disruptive or abusive behaviour will be reported to relevant Internet Service Providers
WHAT WILL THIS SITE DO FOR ME?
Give you an understanding of what Narcissists/Psychopaths are and how they affect our lives, and help you know you are NOT ALONE, help you laugh when you are feeling down, help you cry when something hits home. Give you a place to share your story, feedback, validation, coping and recovery resources. People have said that 2 weeks on a support forum has helped them more than months of therapy. If you have never been on a discussion forum before, we think you'll like it. We can get support from members while we're wearing our old bathrobe and our members find sharing stories becomes a lifeline as we become important friends for each other.
The best rule is The Golden Rule.
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."
Note: Member's quotes are used anonymously at our Abuse Survivor Quotes site: http://abuserecovery.synthasite.com/ Your identity will never be revealed. If you wish to submit a quote that you have found helpful, (Thank You!) If you have questions or if you wish to be excluded please contact us.
MESSAGE BOARD PROTOCOL - Our host site Runboard has a mandatory Code for all groups and we have additional expectations. Our policy is Zero Tolerance of abusive behaviour. Messages containing personal data may be removed or edited for member protection. Messages may not contain the given names of abusers as it is slander/libel and can result in membership termination. We do not allow spamming/linking to commercial or inapproriate websites. Objectionable messages, use of unacceptable foul language, violations of policies and/or disrespect of the forum's intent, can result in immediate membership termination without notification. Your managers make careful deliberations in determining membership cancellations based on the best interest of the forums. Our forums are 'family friendly' and young people come here for research, sharing messages and learning. We therefore ask that you avoid detailed sexual discussion topics. Managers will remove any messages which are deemed inappropriate. You'll be glad to know your managers have uploaded the latest in common sense and gut instinct and we have the right to decide which messages are appropriate and, we will revoke membership for failure to comply with our policy.
Our message boards are dedicated to our learning, support, resources, and life situations.
All pages on this site are considered our property. If you wish to use our information you will need to contact the manager c/o LynnS to open a dialogue so that fair use policies on the internet are adhered to.
We do not allow negative comments about other message boards. Poaching or spamming is not allowed and such messages will be removed.
At some point, we all find some messages or people may strike an emotion from anger to happiness. This teaches us about how we feel about something in our own life. These are learning opportunities. You may wish to examine why a particular message makes you feel unsettled. We often learn something new about ourselves. If you have a problem with someone's post, for whatever reason, please DO NOT RESPOND TO IT.
PM LynnS we may miss something and very much appreciate your help. Mention which forum, the message thread title, member's name, text, and why you feel it is inappropriate and a link to it if possible so we can quickly resolve your concerns.
Rules of Netiquette
http://www.albion.com/netiquette/corerules.html
There is therapeutic value in not being reactive. We're bound to not like or disagree with some messages, so why on earth get upset when you're already dealing with an N/P in your life, and when it's the manager's job to take care of it. Most importantly, use self control in not responding to bait with anger. This will help you cope with the N/P in your life. If you can't deal with a complete stranger's words on a screen, you're going to have a hard time keeping your 'sense of self' strong around your N/P. Don't let your fingers fly to the keyboard to defend yourself. Besides, when the managers see any angry responses, the wrong person could be kicked off. We hate it when that happens. Don't put us in that position.
CONFIDENTIALITY is essential for you and your N/P. For your safety, remain anonymous, DO NOT use your real name, address, or personal information.
Mentally ill/disordered people often form relationships with other people with mental illnesses/dysfunctional people so please be aware of the high potential for similar situations on our message boards. Be cautious in any personal contact with members who may have their own mental health problems and who wish to involve you in their situations. Avoid such people at all times.
People may give you coping suggestions, but you are under no obligation to take their suggestions. Each of us is ultimately responsible for our actions, inactions and decisions. We think our policies are fair and, if you think so too, we invite you to join us.
Warning and Disclaimer The contents of this website are not a substitute for legal and medical professional help and counseling. Diagnosis and treatment of mental problems can only be done by professionals qualified to do so. We are not professionals. We are committed to providing learning, resource and support forums for anyone facing these devastating circumstances. There may be a tendency to trivialize mental disorders and we wish to emphasize very real potential for violence.
Mental health sites can attract high percentages of dysfunctional people. Members with ongoing dysfunctional interaction, enmeshment, pathological co-dependence with abusers need professional therapy and in their best interest may be subject to membership cancellation.
