In hospital

Just an update - I'm in hospital - and have been since last Wednesday.  The long and short of it is terrible depression and suicidal thoughts. But it's getting a little better since being admitted.

I'm hoping to be out sometime this week.

The server's monthly bill comes out next Sunday.  We're short for it, but I plan to be out of hospital in time so I can get it cleared up.

If anyone wants to chip a few $$ in - the spot to look is:

Cheers, Rick
 
Hope you feel better soon Rick. I'll try to send a little extra for the site shortly.
 
First off, get well Rick! As Wigwal says, worry about here last. Second, before the end of the month when the bill comes in, I'll also send some help...

On another note, could we find a sponsor or the like to cover the regular site costs, in favour of a link/ permanent banner or something? Like hockey teams do? I don't know much about this stuff.

Anyway, if others know more about this, please explain or pm me. I'm willing to write some letters or something, do searches, generally, just help out.  I just feel that our community should be able to figure this part out, no disrespect toward anybody...
 
I'm sure that there are free servers that could host this site. Also, someone could just host it on a computer in their home with an unlimited Internet connection.

Rick I hope you feel better soon. There is a book called how to win over depression that is really good, also another one called mind over mood. Make sure you go for walks and exercise. Best wishes and get well soon. Make sure you take your medication and work with your psychiatrist. Also push for a firm diagnosis.
 
I hope that you get well asap, I know that it's a tough battle though. I always think "think of everything you've been through over the years with depression, imagine how strong you will be once you get out of it".
 
I can't begin to imagine what's going on Rick, but know that you have support and well wishers here on the site.

Take care of yourself.
 
Very sorry too hear of the pain you are going through Rick. I cant even begin to give any kind of advice . I have had bouts of depression due to an addiction so I know how powerful it can be. Please take care...
 
Rick, positive energy and healing thoughts coming your way.  And some extra $$ for the site, too.  Take care and get well.
 
Thanks everyone.  TMLfans has some of the nicest people - seriously I love this community.

I'm home, likely a few days earlier than I should have, but my roommate was a total nutjob and I had to sleep with one eye open.  He was a special breed on mentally unstable.

Thanks again for all the support and well wishes!
 
Thanks for the surprise donation in the mail hockeyfan1.  Very much appreciated, as usual!
