Is it safe to send nudes on Reddit? Will anyone ever know?

    Hey @nem

    I’m not sure that’s a very safe thing to do as anything you post on the internet is there forever, even if you delete it it’s still there in a way. Obviously it is your choice and I can’t tell you not to but this website may be of more help

    Sometimes when the people most like you don't love you, it is a hurt that can cause the greatest pain, and this pain can lead you to hate everything.

    I would say definitely not, got to be very careful with people online especially like reddit with people we don't know.

    Don’t do it, it’s not worth it and you never know what people will do with those images.

    Hi @nem , just to say we've had to edit out that image as it contained an explicit illustration of a naked body.

    It sounds as though you're feeling really torn here - am I hearing that right?

    Part of you really wants to send these nudes, whereas another part of you is unsure, or wants reassurance that what you're doing will be safe. We hear you, and you are doing really well to reach out and ask for some support.

    I wonder if it might help to draw up a little 'pro' and 'con' list for yourself, first listing all of the reasons you want to send the nudes on Reddit, and then listing all the reasons why you're hesitant.

    We can't tell you 'do it' or 'don't do it' as its not our place to give you advice necessarily, however, there's a risk when posting personal photos on any public platform that these photos may then be non-consensually distributed, or that your identity might be exposed. You can find out more about the risks here: https://www.victimsupport.org.uk/you-co/types-crime/online-crime/sexting/.

    If you'd feel comfortable sharing, what leads you to want to send the nudes on Reddit? What do you hope the outcome will be when you post them there, and how do you hope this to make you feel?

    We're here with you to explore this together.
