In August 2005 Joshua Cole, founder of
BPDWORLD, decided that the information and support offered
for those with BPD should be more widely available to everyone
with mental health issues. Although BPDWORLD was there for
everyone it was felt that people without a BPD diagnosis
were reluctant to use the support services on offer and
the information on other mental health issues, although
informative, was limited.
To overcome these issues; by the end of
August, 7 new websites, including DEPRESSION-WORLD were
created, privately owned by Joshua Cole. Each providing
more in depth information on individual disorders with room
to grow as more up to date treatments and resources become
available taking this organisation closer to its goal of
being the best support network nationally and maybe even
internationally.
All of these information sites are linked
together to the massive range of online support services
which include:
Forums
– For people with mental health issues, survivors
of abuse, eating disorders and self harm.
Users
chat room - Where people from each of the three communities
can talk to others who have been through similar situations
to themselves.
Journals/Blogs

the healing process. Entries can be kept private or published
for others to read and respond.

contact one of our volunteers
