They have stopped their texting service. I find the emails are still quite good but I know others like to text. Thought I would let people know as I only found out today.
now hand over the tea bags and we won't have any trouble.... :police:

I just had a MH assessment turned advocacy meeting. They told me about Shout. A crisis text service i had never heard of before.  https://www.giveusashout.org/

For those feeling they can't talk on the phone with Sam's.
