Matchmaking service for the mentally ill
http://www.nolongerlonely.com/

I thought about doing something like this a while back. Somebody beat me to it.

Have you ever felt uncomfortable about revealing your mental illness to a potential mate? Have you ever been dumped when you told someone you have a mental illness? Well, nolongerlonely.com is the place for you. You can go there in search of a date, a serious relationship, or just for friendship and pen pals. You can go there and be up front about your illness and find acceptance. Membership is completely free.

The site was started by a guy who became ill several years ago and with the help of medication and therapy managed to become successful in life.

2. Thanks Droopy.
I gave the name of the website to my son. It's nice to talk to people who understand what you're going through, i.e. meds, side effects. :hi:

3. You're welcome
Tell your son to look me up on there if he wants to. I'm Droopy on there, too. I live in West Carrollton, Ohio and I have schizoaffective disorder. I have in my profile on there that I'm interested in speaking to females, but I'll talk to just about anyone. I'm on there mainly to find pen pals. I remember your son has bipolar disorder. Bipolar is a part of my illness so we would have something we could relate to.
