Suicide Hotlines and Mental Health Services
Hello, everyone! Mod Emery and Mod Lee have gathered together some resources for those of you that are going through a very difficult time. We would love to help each and every one of you individually, but answering asks from suicidal anons puts us in a very questionable legal situation. Also, since many of us mods have dealt with suicide in our lives, it is a very difficult topic for us to cover. Nonetheless, we hope all of you are able to benefit from this mental health resource list that we have put together.Ā
Mod Emery says: I believe in each and every one of you, and as cliche as it sounds, it can get better. As someone who has been in the same situation, you can take it from me. This existence of ours can often feel like ascending a mountain without any climbing gear, but it is possible to do so when you have a bit of help. I know that all of you can reach the peak if you are just given a helping hand.
