He quite reasonably is very stressed, this isn’t really a good place for that.

Interesting? We do what we can to keep the people here away from harm. If that means keeping them out of here for a short time (three days in Dresderstan's case), that's what we do. We also referred him to the links for people feeling depressed or suicidal. As Ethel said, the last place I'd want someone in that state mind wandering around is NSG.

And if you've seen people going on about killing themselves for months and did not let us know in a GHR, what does that say about you? So don't comment on things you know next to nothing about.

Didn't mean to make things rocky and I tried to make make that comment as unbiased and non partisan as possible just incase if people worry about Dres.

It is true that social media is the worst place for someone to vent their feelings on now that I remember. I remember trying to help someone with PTSD on FB and it didnt go well. That's when I realized social media is the worst place for someone to vent about their mental health.

Because they will feel no one cares, and no one will help them. The only help we can literally do is verbal or link to online resources.

All we can do is hope and pray for the best.

1. I'm aware, twas just making note of something, meant nothing by it and I apologize if it could be read that way.
2. On the other hand... IIRC, with the specific person I'm thinking of, Mods were present when they were doing this and multiple GHR's were filed and nothing was really done. So whose failing is that really?

Anyway, I'm just gonna end this here.

Internal moderation policies regarding such incidents have been formalized since whatever incident you are referring to, following consultation with mental healthcare professionals on how best to address such situations.

Depends on the area.

If it's near the nail then you might've pulled something out/cracked it, or you have an ingrown, both of which would be best to get checked out. On the other hand, if it's elsewhere then A. Stop scratching it, and B. Compress it.

Don't let any demons, monsters, or fairies entry your body through your foot while you are bleeding. I recommend wearing your clothes inside out and getting yourself a four-leaf clover to ward off evil spirits until you fix that foot up.

I don't know how to ward them away so hopefully they shouldn't be a problem.

Be careful doing that, you could sneeze your soul right out! Best instead to wait for the toad doctor to get here.
