As members of PsychHelp, you have access to the follow tools. We hope to see these tools being put in use for the benefit of the community and its members. We have created these tools so that members can take an active part in the communities content. Afterall, this is your group and therefore it will be your contributions that make this community a success.
Announcements: This is a place for the managers to announce changes and improvements, so that our members will always be informed as to what is going on within and outside of the community. It is also a place for members to announce important events or things that they feel are important to other members.
Suggestions and Queries: This is a place for members to make suggestions for further community developments as well as changes they feel would benefit the group. Your views are extremely imprtant to us and therefore any ideas will be both appreciated and seriously considered. You may also like to use this option to ask the manager's questions about anything to do with the community and the running of it.
Message Boards:
GENERAL: This message board can be used for a variety of discussions, including introductions, humour, and things that would seem off-topic in the other discussion boards.
PSYCHOLOGY DEBATE: This is a message board for intellectual debate on topics related to psychology, whether it be theories, studies, psychologists, life events, and much more. Basically, any psychological topics will be accepted and appreciated. This board may be useful to those of you who are professionals, students, or those who merely want to learn more about psychology through a discussion and analysis of certain issues and topics.
MH SUPPORT: This message board is for all of those who have joined this community to give and recieve support on mental health issues. We hope to develop a strong support system, whereby people can be themselves and meet people who have experienced the same issues as them. At a later date we may start to include self-help activities that can provide is with a better sense of ourselves and our disorders or problems.
Member's Profile: This is a place for us to share more information about ourselves, such as our geographical status, hobbies and contact details. We hope that this will bring is all closer together in a way that will create a safe and secure community for all members.
Member's Poetry: This is a place for us to share our poetry, something that we have written from the heart and which has great meaning. The feelings and emotion behind poetry are worthy of recognition and that is why this page has been created. For all of those wanting to share their poetry with the group, then please send me your work and I will try to present it in a way that will please both you and the reader.
Book Recommendations: This is a place for us to recommend and review psychology books, whether it be personal accounts, academica text, or reference books. If we have enjoyed a book or found it useful, it is always good to share this with others who may also enjoy or benefit from reading the text.
Film Reccomendations: This is the same as the book recommendation section, but will involve us sharing psychology related films, whether it be personal accounts, documentaries or other.
Chat Schedule: This list can be used by both members and managers to organise chats of various topics and at various times. This gives members the power to choose topics and times that they are available. If the chat has no specific topic then just put that in the 'topic' section and that will be fine.
