Re: **IMPORTANT** Please help us Keep NMP up and running!!
It is really a great site, i run my own for work purposes and i know of the costs. This site has so much to it, it really is brilliant. I will happily donate, i get paid monthly so will be sure to do this each time if it means keeping the site and securing it's future.

Re: **IMPORTANT** Please help us Keep NMP up and running!!
Emmz and anyone else.
I am just catching up and have just read about Nic and her partner splitting up, and that it costs 100.00 a month to run NMP.
Is the Quiz night finished ?
I haven't been around for a while and quite honestly things have gone from bad to worse as you know.
|What I have noticed is that hardly any of the people who were regulars a year ago seem to have disappeared.
If it was my site I would make it members only, makes it more exclusive and stop all these people who announce "please delete my account".
I know there isn't a perfect solution to suit everyone but I would make it a yearly membership payable by monthly Standing Order or a cheque as a lump sum or whatever way is best for NMP.
I wouldn't dictate the amount but give a guide line from £1.00 to £5.00 a month as it is clear you as a team can't carry on like this for much longer, and it would be a shame to waste all these years of hard work.
Take care xx
PS. I haven't read every suggestion so excuse me if I am repeating others thoughts.

I'm not sure which people you are looking for but if its more the HA people, there is a new Facebook group set up by cpe1978 that is focussed on recovery as they wanted to avoid a lot of the issue based threads.
If thats who you after, have a look at cpe1978's threads as he did create one to broadcast it. Its got quite a few members I believe and I know some people off here joined it.

I am so sorry Terry, a bad use of words
I meant that many regulars from a year ago don't appear to post on NMP anymore, but my post was really about keeping NMP going.

An interesting post Ricardo as I kept intending to make a donation.
You see, I'm one of last year's regular posters that rarely post now (because I've moved several steps forward). I find myself wishing to share my progress but .... That progress I am experiencing is actually getting in the way. The improvements in my mental wellbeing mean I am so busy, I am struggling to find the time to come on here. So that's where I've been. I find myself committed to other activities which lessen my time available to contribute here.
It's as if the site suffers in the sense that if regular posters recover, they may well move on.
As regards contributing, I have been intending to make a contribution since this thread has been running. Maybe now it's time to get my @r$e in gear & make that donation.
Re: **IMPORTANT** Please help us Keep NMP up and running!!
In an honest opinion donating some money to a site that offers 24/7 help and advice and information and making friends with people who suffer the same as yourself is a small price to pay for some days that are better than seeing you psychiatrist in all honesty.
I shall click the apropriate link and donate what I can.
I love this site
Good Luck
Re: **IMPORTANT** Please help us Keep NMP up and running!!
I rarely post now but this place has done so much for me in the past, I would hate to think of it not being here for people who may need it as much as I once did (and may well again, you never know)
Happy to donate now and will do so again on a regular basis. I had no idea of the financial costs of running this place but always appreciated the time and effort you guys put in. Thank you xx
Re: **IMPORTANT** Please help us Keep NMP up and running!!
I think I may have offended some people by saying that NMP should only be available to members but I still think it is unfair that because NMP is a lifeline to so many people that a small donation (which is obviously needed) would be appreciated at this time more than ever as Nic is going through very difficult and stressful times.Guests don't pay but can read everything for free.Is that a good balance.
13340 views and counting on this thread since Emmz put this up in January says a lot.I have donated just now and will again if need be.
Re: **IMPORTANT** Please help us Keep NMP up and running!!
I donated a few days ago - this website means a lot to me and has helped me a lot when I've been feeling very anxious and low. It's important the site stays around for anyone who needs it. :) I also donated a couple of years ago when going through one of my previous anxiety episodes.
