I am reposting this and hope it can remain here in Medical where most people will see it.
Lyme Chat has been around for about 7 or 8 years, and is a live chat room that starts to get busy around 8 pm. It is most busy later at night, and goes until 2 or 3 am Eastern time.
Please, if you are feeling depressed, or suicidal, know that you can come there and everyone will support you. If no one is in the room just wait, and it will beep to let you know someone else has arrived.
It is tragic to lose any of our Lyme Friends to suicide. I just want everyone to know this is one place where you can turn to for support, live, every night.

Just so people know, sometimes the first person won't get in there until 8 or 8:30 or even 9, depending on the night.
So, if no one is there, don't think you are in the wrong place, it's just that many of us are night owls!!!
But there are usually at least a few of us there every night, sometimes many more. Probably the most active time is 11-midnight I would say.

I wish that not everyone was a night owl. My husband has to get up very early, and our computer is in the bedroom. He hates it when I "clunk" on the keys.

Hi there, Forgot to post this up here....recent change; you now need your own password to log in.
Please send an email to [email protected] and request a password. You need to tell us what you want your user name and password to be and we will set you right up.
Sorry, dealing with trolls and hackers and hoping this will put an end to it. We hesitated to do this because we wanted it to be easily accessed, but at this point we have to be more secure!

I found 'evan' in the directory but there are about 5 or so. Is he the Junior member?
In the past, I was just PM'd the password.
"Riddance" was the old one...just so you know I am not a troll!!!
