I know that the monitors are on the ball, beachsmiles was pretty good at giving references for other support. I know this from experience, A while back I was feeling pretty bad and I got an e-mail right away from the monitors. They do what they can, unfortunately it is up to the person, usually if they are here they are looking for help. I have tried "The Samaritans" and they are pretty good at responding and helpful. I did try an online counseling forum but they cut you off with no notice to you, just all at once they are gone.  Hope that gives you and idea! MJKKAS
I also remember someone once said that police came to their door too, so I think the info you give to them to join helps too. Or maybe someone else knew they were having a hard time. I didn't have police come to my door, I don't know if that is because I wasn't saying goodbye and everything else, and my address had changed from where I was at the time.

Thanks for responding.  I just happened to wonder about this because I was talking with someone on this board one night and we were the only ones on at the time...and I started wondering what I should do if I thought they might be suicidal or something...I'm fairly new here so I don't know a lot about some of the regulars and it may have just been me over reacting a bit.  I was wishing that someone else had been around so that they might know whether the behavior was normal or not.  Makes you wonder what we should do in that event.  Nice to know the monitors are keeping tabs.
