The real issue for me is, at some near point, I'm resuming clinical psychology and any hint of "weed" isn't likely to get the readership I seek.
That makes sense. The new forum's name is misleading, since the sections are all the same as here and at this stage the bulk of the discussion doesn't mention weed or PAWS.
I remember not long before the UF closure was announced thinking there'd end up nothing but PAWS sufferers and the inconsolable desperate788 here. It's a shame you missed its heyday.
I hope to find a serious platform for psychology. I must admit I noticed a real decline in reaearch everywhere. Even my old lecturers seem to discuss mostly routine affairs such as raffles or the weather. I am convinced the internet has eroded intellectual capacity on a global level. It was what Einstein predicted would happen.
I agree with you! and it starts in primary school, where the children get good marks just for showing up, and if the teachers make any comments at all on work handed in they usually prove to be illiterate themselves.
A cursory glance suggests https://psychologyforum.com/ might work for you. There are bigshop79 ads all over it, but if it works like UF you won't see them once you sign up.
I've enjoyed our discussions, won't forget the couple of pages about our respective dogs, and I wish you well.
