Does anyone know what happened to this board?

Posted by KathrynLex on August 12, 2018, at 12:35:54

Back in the early 2000's, I found Psycho-Babble, and it was a Godsend because Prozac had pooped out (after almost a decade!) and I was about to take the plunge into Lexapro. The people here are amazing, and helped me through a very scary transition onto a new medication that gave me my life back for five years. It's so great to see some familiar names from those days, and I hope some of them read this, knowing they really, really helped me.

Fast forward about ten years, and I returned to the board. Dr. Bob had completely disappeared. He wasn't moderating posts or responding to questions. Very few people were posting anymore, and it broke my heart to see such a wonderful community disappearing. I actually emailed Dr. Bob, and pleaded with him to reestablish his connection to this website, or turn the admin tasks over to someone else. It seemed like he was gone for several years (does anyone know the story behind his absence?)

I cam back here several days ago because I've stopped 10 mg of Lexapro cold turkey so I can start taking Nardil in about 10 days. I was so relieved to see there are still people posting, and that Dr. Bob appears to have resumed his involvement (to a limited extent).

I've tried to find other online support networks, but this one in particular seems to attract very intelligent people who really know their way around medication. I've posted similar questions to Facebook groups and then to this board, and the quality of information I can get here is significantly higher than what I've found in other corners of the internet.

I noticed a lot of the posts are older, but there are still people who talk every couple of days. Is the board limping along, or is this just a slow time and things will pick back up? I'm interested in hearing thoughts from some other folks, and maybe a few of the folks who have been her since the beginning could chime in?
