Hi Stygian! Welcome to Wrong Planet! Check out the many interesting and helpful forums here. I lurked for probably over a year before I finally registered here. I don't like to have to register with every site I visit. I have to really want to post or respond to posts at a site before I will take that step. I have probably been a registered member for almost two years now. I like the site, and get info here. I also like reading and responding to the posts here--maybe too much. I spend a lot of time just on this site alone, when I am online, so it means I spend less time on chores.
Fortunately, I live alone, so I am the only one who has to live with my messy place.
I am glad your counselor referred you to this site. It's a good place for us. Just remember, you are among friends here at WP!
