Hey Guest,
We wanted to share a quick update with the community.
Our public expense ledger is now live, allowing anyone to see how donations are used to support the ongoing operation of the site.
š View the ledger hereOver the past year, increased regulatory pressure in multiple regions like UK OFCOM and Australia's eSafety has led to higher operational costs, including infrastructure, security, and the need to work with more specialized service providers to keep the site online and stable.
If you value the community and would like to help support its continued operation, donations are greatly appreciated. If you wish to donate via Bank Transfer or other options, please open a ticket.

While the Samaritans are much better than some of the other helplines, I have to agree that the service is akin to placing a bandaid over a bullet wound due to the scripted visage the volunteers have to maintain. I don't think it's their fault, they really do think they are performing a good deed and helping people, not truly realizing how unhelpful it is for most.
One time I used the email service and I could tell when they had switched to another volunteer, the typing style and demeanour would change completely, and the new person would be seemingly unaware of what I was saying previously. It didn't feel like a true conversation at all.

I use the crisis text line sometimes, it's good for when I have a panic attack in the middle of the night and need someone to help calm me down.I hate the Samaritans, I always have to repeat the same shit and they never understand all of my mental disorders which can be annoying.
I'm just not a big fan of helplines, I've tried lots.
At this point I'd rather just ctbSimilar threads
