But, next time you feel overwhelmed by someone, putting up a link to help someone or send hugs is acceptable. And, believe me, they will get a hug or help from the entire group.
s the step by step detail in which to put up a link ?
Isnt there someway that DS can check on a person membership and the person recent post and/are hugs?
i take such threats as being just that but at same time we must gard ourselves from vaccumm people.
In my life time I noted that some are calling out for someone to listen to them - to purg thierselves of the pain they feel at that moment.
We can only chat with them and let them talk thur what ever clouded at that moment.
Some thur out a period of time they give out warnings in hope to be comfortant & stopped and for someone to take away thier pain and to resolve dificult in thier personal lives.
the latter only pdoc and therapest can assist.
Some wanting to be heard and comforted - will accidents happen that they thierselve did not wish.
Again on line all we can do is try to extract info such as ph no, e address in which to provide our local pd who are trained to deal with such matters.
The good news is that DS members know that we're here for them and they can vent and share and know that they are not actually alone, they have us and they have available DS.
We can not get in our car and go to them and even if we could we are not trained to deal & handle such so the best we can do is to be here when they wish to share & vent and, we half to keep some distance to protect our over all well being- similar to medical staff who also care but protect thier own well being.
Will do share info on how to add link and post other DS member post as links.
