General information about Psycho-Babble

Here's some general information about Psycho-Babble. And links to more stuff here at dr-bob.org.

Registration

Registration is required to post. A confirmed e-mail address is required to register, but you don't have to give it out when you post. You can confirm (or update) your registration (or register for the first time) now or when you post. You don't need to register a separate time for each board. No money or waiting is required. You register using a secure web server, so information you submit is encrypted before it's sent, so you don't have to worry about it being intercepted.

List of boards

There's a lot to babble about! Here are the active Psycho-Babble message boards:

Medication is about biological treatments,
Alternative is about alternative treatments,
Faith is about religious faith,
Politics is about politics,
Psychology is about psychology and psychological treatments,
Social is for general support and "just" being social,
2000 is for those who joined then, and
Administration is about the operation of this site.

And here are the inactive ones. These discussions now take place on Medication or Social, so follow-ups are automatically redirected there.

Books was about books,
Eating was about eating,
Grief was about grief, mourning, and loss,
Health was about physical health,
Neurotransmitters was about advanced medication issues,
Newbies was for new members,
Parents was about parents and children,
Relationships was about interpersonal relationships,
Self-Esteem was about self-esteem,
Students was for university students,
Substance Use was about substance use,
Withdrawal was about withdrawal from medication,
Work was about employment, and
Writing was for creative writing.

Facebook

Psycho-Babble has a Facebook page.

If you like it, please click the "like" button. :-) If you do, your Facebook account will link you to Psycho-Babble. But that doesn't mean you're necessarily a Babbler, and if you are a Babbler, that doesn't necessarily identify which Babbler you are. Using the share button on a post doesn't automatically make you "like" Psycho-Babble on Facebook.

Twitter

Psycho-Babble also has a Twitter account.

Please feel free to "follow" it. If you do, your Twitter account will link you to Psycho-Babble. But that doesn't mean you're necessarily a Babbler, and if you are a Babbler, that doesn't necessarily identify which Babbler you are. Using the tweet button on a post doesn't automatically make you follow @psycho_babel on Twitter.

Babbleometer

You can use the Babbleometer to track how you do over time: fill out some questionnaires, save your responses on the server, and review your progress whenever you like. Doing this in a consistent way may give you a helpful perspective on how things are going and a better idea of what helps and what doesn't.
