Here are links to various websites that can help!

 

United States:

RAIN Hotline (Rape, Abuse, Incest National Network) - (800) 656-HOPE (this is a national number that will automatically transfer you to the rape crisis center nearest you, anywhere in the nation. It can be used as a last resort if people cannot find a domestic violence shelter.)

And there's the Nineline, in the US: 1-800-999-9999. It's for runaway prevention/help and suicide prevention, mostly; it also is for counseling. It's free and confidential. It will also refer you to another, more specialized hotline/aid group if necessary.

 

And it's exceptionally easy to remember.

Because I feel it's important and I have it in both of the boards I mod. Somebody who sees it here might not go into personal logs.

If you look in the other forums you will see most of the mods have this pinned. If someone is in trouble we don't want them to have to go searching through thousands of threads trying to find this.

Because people in trouble get their advice from Star Trek fan websites.

Does it matter where advice or help comes from? Many people actually do turn to Star Trek when they're depressed, so it's not unthinkable that someone might be depressed or in some kind of trouble and find this thread and seek help from it.

I think that it's great to have the numbers here.

Even if you don't need them, someone that you know might and then you can give them a number that might end up saving their lives.
