I will be starting my first year in university, getting my Bachelors in Science degree, so I will no longer be accepting requests until I have properly settled in and decided I can juggle school with active listening. I hope everyone understands. Have a great day!

Hi there! I'm known on here as Comforting Forest, but you can call me Michelle if you want. I specialize in quite a few things: 

Alcohol/Drug Abuse, Anxiety, Breakups, Bullying

College Life, Depression, Eating Disorders, Exercise Motivation

Family Stress, Financial Stress, Grief, LGBTQ+

Loneliness, Managing Emotions, Panic Attacks, Parenting

Relationship Stress, Self-Harm, Sleeping Well, Social Anxiety

Weight Management, Work Stress

Beyond these things, if you need a friend to talk to, I'm here. If you need a shoulder to cry on, I'm here. If you just want to just talk or vent, I'm here. I'm a jack of all trades when it comes to helping and talking to people. There is almost nothing that I haven't dealt with or experienced on some level, so no matter what the issue is feel free and message me.
P.S: If I do not respond immediately or appear offline, just leave me a message and I will get back to you as soon as I can :)
