LEAVE SITE NOW

NOTE: Please use the Safety Exit link to escape quickly to another site -- this will prevent others from seeing what you're looking at, especially if you're in a domestically violent situation. However, keep in mind this will not erase the website from your browse history, so please remember to erase that when you're finished. This link will appear throughout this topic for your convenience.

Though this forum is similar to the Mental Health forum, Life Issues is specifically for topics regarding situations we encounter everyday -- bills & finances, relationship issues (including topics regarding domestic abuse), life advice, etc.

The Life Issues subforum is a place for you to give voice to your thoughts, good or bad, and vent your frustrations and fears. We're all in the same boat, some have gone through more than others and can give precious, priceless advice; others have gone through little, have nowhere to turn and are desperate for help. I love you

This space is very much about empathy, sympathy, compassion and helpfulness.

However, this forum also celebrates your life's victories! Please share with us your successes at school or work, your upcoming wedding engagement or anniversary, etc. It is our hope the good will balance out, if not dominate over, the bad. :3nod:

Following the Rules & Guidelines are the ultimate posts containing helpful apps, phone numbers, websites, and all manners of different life hacks to help you get around common roadblocks.

Because these topics can often be a bit controversial in nature, and because the OP's may already feel hopeless and in a sense of chaos, we ask that you help us keep some semblance of order by following the guidelines below (which are subject to change as the forum grows):

NEVER[b] encourage someone to harm themselves or someone else;
NEVER attempt to diagnose or give legal advice to someone;
Do not exploit someone's state of mind to manipulate them to provide you with items and/or services.
NO form of hate-speech will be tolerated. This includes any speech that attacks a person's race, religion, ethnic origin, national origin, sex, disability, sexual orientation or gender identity. Offenses of this nature will result in an immediate ban.

Did we miss anything?
Please let us know if we did so we can add it here. We strive to make these lists as complete as possible!

Spoiler:

This section and the next are not as developed as the others because I worked on this friggin list for a week or more and then, just as I finished, somehow, I lost the F-N section and just simply did not feel like putting that amount of work back into it. I may go back through and make a more complete list, or one of you may do so if you like. Just make a note that to find crisis centers/hotlines in your area to simply click on your state and then click on their "Get Help" or "Find Help" buttons.
