Support Groups Newsgroup Pointer                 
 
This Pointer will help you find the information you need and get your
questions answered much quicker than if you were to simply crosspost to
every psychology or support newsgroup in existence. It is provided as
a public service. Post your article in the most appropriate newsgroup
according to its topic.

  * Not all sites carry all the below listed alt.* newsgroups.
  * If your site does not carry a particular alt newsgroup, please
  * contact your own News administrator and request that they
  * begin carrying that specific group.

  * Because of software posting limitations, this article may
  * appear more than once. My apologies for this inconvenience.

Psychology & Support                                  By: John M. Grohol
Mailing List Pointer

This Pointer will help you find mailing lists that are available on the
Internet.  It is provided as a public service.

 * New, easier to read and use format!
 * Coming soon!! The Grohol Mental Health WWW Page.

INSTRUCTIONS on how to use this pointer:

 * Mailing lists are listed in alphabetical order, by topic.
 * After each topic is an example of the command you might 
   send to subscribe to that particular mailing list. Most 
   of these commands will work as listed.
 * You subscribe to a mailing list by sending email to the 
   subscription address listed for each mailing list.
   Typically, you send a one-line email message 
   (leave the subject heading blank) to this address 
   which includes the words:

               subscribe NAME-OF-LIST

 * Sometimes your name or email address is also required
   after the name-of-list. If so, you will probably receive
   an automated reply from the mailing list server.
   When known, it is indicated in the below listing as:
      N = Your name   or   E = Your email address
 * Sometimes you will be sending email to a real person, 
   not some software that will automatically process
   your request; or, sometimes a person will have to 
   approve your request before you can subscribe.
 * If nothing else works, send a one-line email message 
   with the word "help" in it.

Comments & suggestions for additions are always welcome!

Psychology Web Pointer                                 By: John M. 
Grohol

This Pointer will help you find the information you need on the World
Wide Web (WWW).  It is provided as a public service.  It is by no means
meant to be a complete listing of all WWW pages associated with mental
health.  It is, however, kept updated with a listing of what I consider
to be some of the more comprehensive and helpful pages around the world.

Arranged by alphabetical order by topic, followed by that topic's URL.

 * Coming soon!! The Grohol Mental Health WWW Page.

Comments & suggestions for additions are always welcome!
