Dear Members,
We have decided to temporarily close Psych.Community, Schizophrenia.Community and MoodDisorder.Community.
Over the next few months, we will redesign our communities to be tutorial groups giving educational courses on Schizophrenia and Mood Disorders.
The success of online tutorial courses elsewhere suggests that this model represents the future of the online self-help movement.
I want to thank all of you for the support you have given our community over all these past years. Our community will be archived so that your excellent posts will not be lost.
It will take a few months to redesign our software and create new educational content for our tutorial courses. This will necessitate closing down our current self-help communities as we make this transition to our new educational communities.
When we reopen, I hope you will consider becoming online tutorial leaders in our redesigned communities.
Our present self-help communities will remain open for the next week to allow members to say goodbye to old friends.
After that, our discussion boards will freeze and no longer accept new posts.
In the new year, our communities will reopen as online tutorial groups teaching self-help courses in Schizophrenia and Mood Disorders.
Many of us have grown old together in the past two decades of our membership in this self-help community. We have shared an important part of our lives, and I will always cherish these memories.
I will not say goodbye, because this is only a temporary closure of all our communities. I hope to see you all when we reopen our online tutorial courses in the new year.
Your friend,
Phil Long MD Administrator |
