Please leave some searching available- could save on space with jane d and/or kiddos ideas and offers?
There is a lot of problem-specific response which is valuable to have access to. And the first time I used PSB I was a bit disoriented and found being able to search on topics gave me a better idea of what was there on things I was concerned about.
One of the things that sometimes concerns me is that the particularly desperate wont get an instant reply when they post. I know that's not how the Board functions, and that they should be trying a person as well. But I think its v useful that they can also search the PSB for words around 'suicidal' and find out the kind of past 'hang on in there' responses that are generally applicable, straight away.
It also helped *me* re posting as I hadnt worked out how to start a new thread (or that that was the name re what I was trying to do), so I posted in an existing thread after a relevant message. But I may be a particularly ill-informed user!
