Welcome to our Physical & Mental Health forum! If you've found your way to this forum, you may have a problem you need help dealing with. You might be here because you want to offer support and advice to others. Or you could just be looking to improve your overall fitness and quality of life. Either way, we're glad you came. Before posting, we ask that you review this forum's simple guidelines.
- This forum is intended for serious discussion only, and off-topic or abusive posts will not be tolerated. When offering advice, please make an effort to be as helpful and supportive as possible. Remember, you're talking to real people with real problems and you need to take them seriously.
- The Shroomery is concerned with your well-being, but we can't be responsible for it. Most of our members have never received any training in crisis intervention or psychiatric counseling, and all advice should be taken with a healthy dose of skepticism. If you have a serious problem you should directly seek professional help. This forum is not a substitute for a doctor or counselor.

I?m sorry, that I even have to say this, but I will personally strike down with great vengeance on anyone who doesn?t take this forum seriously, and posts a bunch of crap that should have stayed in the OTD.
People who can?t act maturely in this community, and keep their bad jokes where all bad jokes should be kept (read: OTD), will be reported to me, and banned for an undisclosed period of time. Believe me, you do not want to be at the bitter end of my ranting PMs pleading to be let back into this community, so please save us both the hassle and act maturely. Thank you!
That is all...

And now a word from the Administrative Staff...
The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother?s keeper and the finder of lost children. And we will strike down upon thee with great vengeance, and furious anger, those who would attempt to poison and destroy our brothers!
PS: We?re serious. If a Support Group Mod warns you about your behavior in this forum, then you may find yourself banned. These Mods have our full support.
