Ressources for unkown person having dark thoughts

Help Others@lemmy.blahaj.zoneEnglish · 5 months ago

I just happen to connect yesterday and found someone from lemmy with intense dark posts, they seem to be having a really bad time/mental breakdown.

I don’t know them and I don’t have knowledge, time and space in my head for helping the right way I think, would anyone here have some resources to help ? Or time ?

If you ask in private message I may give more details, this user doesn’t know I read stuff from them, sorry I don’t know how to do this, thank you anyway 🙏

The Lemmy community for helping others and seeking help.

We value kindness: Actions or speech intended to help others.

Formal rules are in the works, but please use common sense (no politics or other unhinged nonsense). The rules will be as lenient as possible to avoid unnecessary censorship and minimize mod power trips.

Curation Policy: If a moderator has reason to believe that certain content is better categorized under a different post, then they may reply to the content asking if it would be better categorized elsewhere, and provide their rationale.

If no response:

Rule of 3: Mod must attempt 3 replies, spaced by (at least) 3 days after each reply.
If there is still no reply 3 days after the 3rd contact, then it is assumed that OP is in agreement, and the mod may curate by copying the content to a different post verbatim, then deleting the original content.

If OP replies:

Other Mod(s) must collectively ask at least 3 good faith questions to clarify OP’s rationale, then the mods will vote and determine by majority rule whether to curate the content.
Majority votes to curate: At least one mod in favor of curation must post their rationale, and any dissenting mods may also post their rationale. After this, the mods will curate the content by copying it to a different post verbatim, then deleting the original content.
Majority votes to not curate: Content stays as is. Mod(s) may post their rationale(s).
