Mental health issues are raising exponentially with young people.. Mastodon has build-in all kinds of features like blocking, muting filters etc and ‘non-features’ like constantly showing numbers everywhere on timelines, profiles etc.

Please know that #Mastodon is a safe place to talk about mental health. Talking about it can really help, we do not judge we only want to help♥️

If we can contribute even the slightest in battling this issue I say we should! Together!  

Personally I have experienced a situation in where someone give certain signals about self harm and even worse here on Mastodon a while ago.

I dropped everything and started talking♥️ Ofc offer professional help first(with phone number or anything) but try to talk!

I’m not a psychologist, not by by a long shot but I am human🥰

Please, if you see something like this happening take the time and talk with the person! You never know what difference it can make!

An excellent reminder to be kind because we don’t always know what’s happening on the other side of some ones key board. ❤️
