Worst idea ever

This is just twisted.

I'm not trying to slight anyone who does have a serious mental problem, as I've seen the effects such diseases can have on a life and the lives of others. It's tragic. But seriously, the whole thing reads like a really sick joke. Outside the context of directed, theraputic relationships under the supervision of a qualified health-care provider, I would think that spending a lot of time with other "mental health consumers" would be detrimental to one's mental hygiene. Isn't the point to spend as much time as possible with stable, grounded individuals in the hopes that their influence would provide some kind of positive effect? Or have I missed something?

Be aware: for some reason the site gives a message about requiring popups. I wasn't particularly interested in finding out whether or not they're serious, so YMMV. I didn't see any way of searching their postings without signing up either. Gotta be some interesting profiles there.
