Safety Guidelines:
- If you are unsafe, please immediately contact local police and/or licensed professionals who can best support you.
- Neither I nor anyone in this community can ever have enough context to properly offer sound and actionable advice.
- Please note that I’m not a licensed mental health or medical provider of any sort. I’m also not skilled in the ways that social workers and police/safety officers are.
- Before acting on advice given by community members or me, review this advice with licensed professionals and/or those who know you and your situation best.
Profile Anonymity Tips:
- Create a unique user name: Create a user name completely different from one that you’ve used before (less traceable).
- Omit or change identifying info: Change or omit information in your story that could lead others to identify you. For example: If I’ve won an award for Firefighter of the Year in Moab, Utah – and if receiving an award is an important part of my story – I might change my award to Artist in Residence. I could also change the city, state or other details in a way that doesn’t fundamentally change the truth of my story.
