Any text groups or something similar?

[mumble]

Odd request and a bit of a shot in the dark... I was just wondering if there are any groups set up for texting on your phone? If it's difficult to access forums or chatrooms at times? There's just been times when I've been out and about and felt it'd be helpful to text people if I was feeling a bit panicky.

I think this would be a good idea...

I would be willing to join

[tigerpaw]

Well you could always find members here that could be your mentorof sorts!!!   They could share that info if they wanted to via emails.

It isn't a txt thing but i sometimes use a wap chat thing called prodigits. Anyone heard of it? It's not anxiety related but you can talk to people that are your friends and post and read on forums which sometimes is all i need to help calm me.

[Jorden_M]

never heard of it.... what is it exactly?

To access anxietyzone.com from your mobile phone, please use/bookmark this URL...

http://www.anxietyzone.com/index.php/wap2

Most non-smartphones will redirect to the URL above automatically when Anxiety Zone is accessed and smartphones should be able to view the site just as if you were viewing it from a regular PC. You can also send and receive private messages, etc but using the chat room or gallery is not available for mobile phones at this time.

Obviously, in order for texting to work, members would have to share their phone numbers (which should only be done privately - ie; via private messaging).

I hope this helps .

That does sound like a fantastic idea! I'm sure there are people who would be willing to do something like that. You may want to create a SayNow.com account, so people won't have your real number..

On my mobile wap i can view posts and stuff from anxiety zone but i can not post on forums or anything like that.. but i do have an old phone so not sure about anyone else...

    Prodigits is like a wap chat feature thing with forums and chat rooms but it isn't about anxiety or health it is general things, music, films, religion, sports etc..... but something to do while you are out if a distraction is needed. I do it in bed at night when i am most restless and need a distraction.

[shanesgirl]

[shanesgirl]

Shanesgirl; check your inbox, I messaged you.

[tofutti83]

I think this is a great idea as well. It'd be nice to have someone to call or speak with during rough times as well but the chat is just as helpful I think.

[MsPanic]

Thanks 4 the mobile chat. I access this site from my mobile phone all of the time. I would still like the 1s who are interested 2 send me a msg because I would love some text buddies.

[Lexx]

Is there anyone in UK who is interested in a text group for support? Or just to talk about whatever really off-topic
Private message me if so.

[ladyshy231]

I'm very interested in this! I'd love to support and be supported.

[ragdoll_gal]

Cool... Now I know where to go online while I'm out doing something and I get anxious. The other day I was at court and just played solitaire. Now I can go and chat.  Thanks!!!!!

[Sarii83]

Wonderful idea!

[stapledmustard]

I just wanted to pop in and say that there is in fact a way to make an texting based chat. It involves some programming and whatnot and I'm not sure exactly how it's done, but I've played with it for someone I knew who was developing one (who I unfortunately no longer talk to). It's pretty cool. You sign in and out just like with a real chat, and you get a text when someone says something in the 'room' (obviously the texts stop when you sign out).  It doesn't reveal your phone number if I remember correctly, you have a username just like most chats. I wish my programming skills were up to par enough to do this, but I'm thinking there must be SOME one on this site who knows how to do all this fancy stuff perhaps? I mention this as I'm one of the few people left in the world who doesn't have unlimited internet on my phone and can't hop onto a mobile chat or anything of that sort whenever I want hehehe.

[Smurfakiss]

I would not mind texting but I could not do it online
I would love to get to be in touch with others and become friends and talk about our mental health issues

[Jorden_M]

Well if anyone is interested in texting about their anxiety disorder or anything really....I am willing! I can call or text. I'm more of a texter really but I am happy to make friends! I am a 24 year old female and suffer from hypochondria, GAD (generalized anxiety disorder) and social anxiety. Msg me if interested!
