Well, I know a lot of us like to give out helpful links to people who make ehelp requests or posts in the forums. I often find myself giving out the same pages, so why don't we make a list of the best sites we've found? I keep some of these links (along with a PM I send to my novices) in my notepad. This is a list of some of the pages I’ve found useful. I’ll add other people’s as they post, so we can have a complete list. In general
- The TDEI sticky: suicide, self harm, depression, therapy, bullying, insecurity
- Reach out: alcohol/drugs, depression/mental health, eating disorders, family, friends, relationships, illness and health, grief, independence, safety/violence, sex, pregnancy and sexuality, communication and self esteem
- Cool Nurse - lots and lots and LOTS of stuff here.
- Livewire Emergency Help: scroll down for sexuality and puberty, health, drugs and substance abuse, mental health, violence and abuse, rape, age of consent, hotlines
Cutting and self harm Sleep Depression, anxiety and stress Friends and relationships Sex and contraception Shyness and insecurity
Eating disorders Studying and concentration I have also found this to be useful, posted by a man who had been having trouble with his wife's illness (schizophrenia): 'She (his therapist) told me to let go of my wife that there was nothing I could do if she didn,t want to help herself.Having been told that by someone who knows what they are talking about has given me a lot of peace of mind.'.

It would be handy if there was some kind of support leader wiki, where we can all contribute resources that can help us in our job :)
