Stay with us.
Whatever right now feels like, you don't have to hold it alone. A real person is here.
We are not set up for under 18s yet, and we would rather tell you that than pretend. It is not because you do not matter. It is because you deserve people who are trained and checked for working with someone your age, and we are still building that properly.
These people are, and they are good. Every one of them is free.
Come back to us when you turn 18, and we will be here. If you are a teacher, a counselor or a parent reading this and you want Charlie Care to be able to help young people properly, tell us: hello@charliecareapp.org
What happens right before things get worse? (isolation, no sleep, substance use, conflict)
Which will you practice?
What matters to you? ("my dog," "I want to see what happens")
What could you remove or restrict? This just buys time for your brain to settle.
The week after a hard night matters. Leave an email and we'll check on you at 30 minutes, 1 hour, 24 hours, 3 days, and 7 days. Optional. You stay anonymous otherwise, and one tap stops them.
Everything you said here, your answers and your safety plan, erased from our servers. Any check-ins stop. This cannot be undone, and after it you will not be able to open this conversation again.
