Hi guys
In amongst all the fun and games there may be people who are feeling lonely, sad, emotional... so I thought I'd post a thread up here with some helplines and info in case anyone needs it.
First, and most obviously, Samaritans are there 24/7 for anyone who is experiencing feelings of distress or despair, including those which may lead to suicide. Tel: 08457 909090 or email: jo@samaritans.org.
Saneline also offers crisis care and emotional support on 0845 767 8000.
SupportLine is another really good helpline giving confidential and emotional support on the telephone for children, young adults and adults who are socially isolated, vulnerable, at risk and victims of any form of abuse. Tel: 020 8554 9004.
Obviously TheSite's boards will be here 24/7 as ever so if you just need a chat do use them! Don't forget our articles, either. If you're tempted to self-harm take a look at these pages: TheSite's self harm section and here's our section on looking after yourself.
Hopefully, everyone will be healthy and happy and won't need to use these.
Take care of yourselves y'all
