Nary a one. In fact I almost registered at one and told the spouses off for being worse behaved than any identified patient I've ever seen. I guess I've been spoiled at Babble. And the site for professionals was moderated, and still didn't come near the pleasant atmosphere of this site. I'm sure there are well behaved spousal support sites. I just didn't run across any yesterday.>

See above.
