Social, Not Social, Addicted, Not Addicted, Mental health…

2020-10-02 Posted by Don Scribbles, Writing

A high school classmate reminded me today that this time of COVID – 19 has been hard on many of us.  Those in treatment or not.  The folks in treatment and recovery.  And those we didn’t even have a clue needed a bit of hope, sometimes known as love or the right number.  The list is not inclusive. It is based on those life-giving communities that have touched me.

NAMI, The National Alliance on Mental Health, has a 24-hour helpline: 📷800-950-6264.

TrevorLifeline at 1-866-488-7386 or select TrevorChat: Text START to 678-678

1-888-NYC-WELL (1-888-692-9355) is a free, confidential helpline for New York City residents. You can call 24 hours per day/7 days a week.

National Suicide Prevention Lifeline
Call 1-800-273-TALK (8255); En Español 1-888-628-9454

Veterans Crisis Line
Call 1-800-273-TALK (8255) and press 1 or text to 838255

Disaster Distress Helpline
Call 1-800-985-5990 or text “TalkWithUs” to 66746

 

Tell me more. We can talk and together, perhaps help our cities, states, and nations to heal.  More, we can be the resources that help others heal.

 

So we all may journey well.

About Don

In various places throughout this blog, I describe me. But even then, I am more than that and often times less. I am a wanderer. Exploring gives me joy. I cook, and that is the reason for the entries that appear as both recipes and restaurant reviews. Knowledge and the ability to take that knowledge and build wisdom and insight makes me want to hop, skip and shout. I counsel, as a pastor, a spiritual director, and as the fool that is willing to live in dialogue. It is that foolishness informs this blog, my musing about faith, religion, and, life.

About Me

I recently celebrated the 40th anniversary of ordination as a pastor. This blog springs from a few years of writing, counseling and foolishness. Anything you find in the word cloud on the home page applies or has applied during this journey. Computers, shepherding and musing. Living, reach out………..
