Resources we mentioned again on air tonight during the culmination of our "March Sadness"

Thought we'd share it here again!

Here are the resources mentioned on Air last week during the show March Sadness (2017) on KBOO 90.7 FM:

- National Suicide Prevention Lifeline '1-800-273-TALK (8255)'

We can all help prevent suicide. The Lifeline provides 24/7, free and confidential support for people in distress, prevention and crisis resources for you or your loved ones, and best practices for professionals.

1-800-273-8255

- Crisis Text Line

Text “CONNECT” to 741741

Text our trained Crisis Counselors about anything that’s on your mind.

Free, 24/7, confidential, nationwide. Right on your phone.

What issues can you text us about?

If it’s a crisis to you, it’s a crisis to us. It’s not just suicide – any painful emotions that get in the way of your mental well-being are a crisis. This might include:

Suicidal Thoughts
Self-harm
Depression
Stress/Anxiety
Grief
Eating Disorders
Physical Abuse
Emotional Abuse
Sexual Abuse
Isolation/Loneliness
Relationship Issues
Bullying

Who can text?

People of all ages – we’re not just for teenagers. Parents, college students, older adults, and anyone else are welcome to text.

What happens when you text us?

You’ll be connected to a trained Crisis Counselor who is ready to take you from a “hot moment” to a “cool calm.” They’ll actively listen to you to help you determine your next steps to stay safe. They won’t offer direct advice, but they can guide you to coping skills.

Free - Crisis Text Line does not charge for the support it provides. Standard messaging fees are waived on Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, and Sprint, and texts to 741741 will not appear on your phone bill if you use one of these carriers.

Confidential – What you say stays between you and the Crisis Counselor. If you are in immediate risk of seriously hurting yourself or others, emergency services may be contacted. We are mandated reporters for cases of abuse of a minor.

24/7 - Help is available around the clock – we answer over 90% of texters within 5 minutes or less.

Nationwide – Volunteers from around the country, supporting people in crisis across the country.

Also as some of the other "March Sadness" groups are holding listening parties of the songs that made it towards the end and encoraging people attending to not bring booze, but to spend that money instead on donations to local Suicide Prevention Organizations. Let us know if you are hosting your own listening party and plan to donate to your local suicide prevention network!
