1. We have so many ways to help you feel included and supported. Just head on over to the Listener Support Room and ask!
2. As a listener, you're volunteering your time to help people who are genuinely in need. That in itself feels great. For members, all the listeners are trained and are willing to help. It's a win-win!
3. Everybody here is non-judgmental, which may be a great change from your real life people.
4. All chats are confidential, enabling you to feel safe while talking about your problems.
5. There are so many ways to get involved in other parts of the site, as both listeners and members. There are subcommunity teams, forum teams and group support teams.
6. You are never alone in your problems and in life. There is always someone here willing to support you through and through.
7. I'll save this one for a tip for listeners. Be empathetic and imagine how the person is feeling. Put yourself in their shoes, and try to understand their perspective and why they may be reacting the way they are. Almost always, it's not personal.
