Recently I wanted to put my experience to good use and try to help some people. So I applied to volunteer for a helpline (some of you know which one, but I'm not sure I'm allowed to say here).
So I applied. Never thought I'd get accepted let alone complete and pass training first time!!!!
I've done a few shifts now and it's amazing to be there to help people in their time of need, I really do know how lonely that time of crisis is, so just to be there for those people is amazing. It's so rewarding.

Hope it went well @Dancer and those anxious feelings didn't hang around too long
@independent_ Well done on passing your training and being accepted as a volunteer, such a powerful thing to be able to help others in that way

I broke that streak today. But it was a birthday treat so I have no regrets.
