Happy Birthday!! My heartfelt gratitude goes out to DJ and everyone else who has been instrumental in the founding and continued success of this forum!!

Although I didn't find this site until 2005, the O2 information I found here completely changed how the beast affects my life.........what drove me to 2 suicide attempts in early 98 is now just another of lifes trials and tribulations!!!

It is a great service that you have provided for the CH community DJ!! Thank You!!

It was all of you who ran with the ball, researching and putting up the information, starting OUCH, helping folks, etc. Me thinks DJ is far too modest.

Rally up, me hearties, we've a beast to slay.
Stand up, confront it, we'll hunt it each day.
Sharpen our spears, go for its heart,
Load now our guns to blow it apart,
United we'll fight it, for DJ has shown us the way.

I was alone, lonely, nowhere to turn.
Eye lit so brightly, face fit to burn.
No one to help me or tell me what's wrong,
Condemned to a hell with no way home,
But, thanks to Deej, I no longer stand on my own.

We're a team now, me hearties, people who know.
No longer powerless, we all know our foe.
True mates, too right, all in the same fight,
Aware of our plight, our strength is our might!
So thanks, Deej, we couldn't have done this alone.

Awwwww, thank you all, and thank you Linda for starting this thread. Your comments are humbling, to say the least. It still brings tears to my eyes reading the stories you guys (and gals) tell when talking about this place.

I've said it many times before and I'll say it again... YOU GUYS make this place what it is, I just provided the meeting place so THANK YOU for keeping this place alive.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY everyone!

DJ

...as one who was "saved" by this forum, I can only add that I (and my family) owe you a debt, deej.
Not one you are comfortable receiving (I say this because I know how gracious you have always been when "we" thank you) and not a debt that can be put into words or dollars.

You give us room to find our particular space and you don't put many restrictions on how we deal with this fucking thief who steals our sleep and makes us so hard to live with. You DO give us a place to vent and spread information.

Thanks bro.. now STFU

Been out of town since Thursday and just got back and saw this thread.

I found this site in the midst of my last cycle (2000) read the front and bawled like a baby......found the chat....found others like me......learned of a get together in Atlanta......went......and the rest is history for me.

After 30 years of cycles the one I was in when I found this place has been my last.......but I will never leave this place.

Now we are going full circle (for me)and meeting again in Atlanta this year.

Thanks DJ for keeping this site throughout the years even thou you have been pain free as long as me.

You didn't have to do it. But you will be rewarded, and already have been for your big heart.
