JOINING THE SA FORUMS WILL REMOVE THIS BIG AD, THE ANNOYING UNDERLINED ADS, AND STUPID INTERSTITIAL ADS!!!

You can: log in, read the tech support FAQ, or request your lost password. This dumb message (and those ads) will appear on every screen until you register! Get rid of this crap by registering your own SA Forums Account and joining roughly 150,000 Goons, for the one-time price of $9.95! We charge money because it costs us money per month for bills, and since we don't believe in showing ads to our users, we try to make the money back through forum registrations.

Mental Health RULE UPDATE

While we appreciate that many posters here struggle with depression and anxiety, SA's community is not designed to be a safe space or provide therapy/psychiatric advice, nor can its moderators/admins be expected to provide care for posters.

With that in mind, we're making some policy changes:

1) If a poster is clearly in need of outside help, their thread will be closed and that poster will be asked to seek immediate medical assistance

2) Threads created solely to discuss self-harm or suicidal thoughts will be removed from public forums, and the original poster will be asked to seek help

3) In some cases, posters discussing self-harm repeatedly might be removed from the community


If you would like general information about psychiatric care, you can head over to the Psychiatric Q&A Megathread in The Goon Doctor: it is available as a resource with the caveat that it NOT be used as a therapy thread.

If you feel that you might be suicidal, we urge you to contact the Suicide Hotline at 800-273-8255 or navigate to http://www.suicidepreventionlifeline.org/ for a live chat and additional resources.
