Under 16's Support Chat

Hey Mixlorians!
Under 16's Support Chat has been running for a while and the old Under 16's pinned post needed updating.
What is Under 16's Support Chat?
It's a place where anyone under the age of 16 can get support with anything on their mind, in a focused space. Much like a regular Support Chat, you don't need to create an account or sign-up in advance to join, and you can join at any time during the session.
You'll notice there is no opening or closing round in these sessions, which is because the groups aren't currently the right size to use those. We will likely bring them in as the group grows, along with the possibility of a General Chat segment (as talked about in the previous pinned post).
When is it?
Under 16's Support Chat is scheduled for every other Saturday,
6-7:30pm.
Check the latest weekly Group Chat announcement thread to see if it's on this week, or take a look at the Group Chat schedule on our website. We'll also let everyone know when it's open by posting here.
I'm over 16 - can I join?
Yes! If you're over 16, you can join as a listener. That means you won't be there to get support for yourself, but you can support our younger members and chat with the group more generally.
Under 16's can also come as listeners - you don't need to get support if you don't want to.

Any questions, post them below!
Mike & the team
Our DMs are monitored Monday - Friday (10am - 5pm) with limited cover on weekends. We have a great team of moderators looking after the community outside of those hours to check in on any reported posts.
We're not able to provide support on this account. If you need support urgently for any reason, please call 999, go to your nearest A&E or contact Crisis Messenger by texting THEMIX to 85258.
