Since you cannot register on the system without this step, this is a commonly used procedure to verify that an individual has registered with an e-mail address that they have access to. It is for our mutual protection that each account has a verified user associated with it.

You will NOT be able to post until you have completed this registration process. It takes less than 3 minutes to complete the process. The Forum name you have selected will be reserved for 10 days.


***NOTE***
If you have a spam block filter activated with your e-mail address you will most likely not receive your e-mail validation and therefore your registration validation will be BOUNCED back to us and again, your attempt to register will be VOIDED.

If there is a problem with your ability to complete your registration or if you DID NOT receive the e-mail we sent, please e-mail us at: info@depressionforums.org and explain the situation. We will help you. We ask that you send this e-mail from the e-mail address you are registering with so we can verify your identity. Please include the Forum member name you have selected! WE CANNOT HELP YOU WITHOUT KNOWING YOUR FORUM MEMBER NAME.
