We are so excited you are here! We are beginning a new series called #mindfulmonday and will be sharing a topic to be mindful of, resources to help you with it and answering your questions submitted here! Some quick guidelines before we get started: Confidentiality - please be mindful of what you are posting as this is a public forum. Please do not discuss any sensitive content related to you or any treatment you might currently be pursuing. Participating in this public, online forum is not a substitute for professional counseling. If you would like to receive counseling services please call our office 912-417-4320. Should you learn someone's identity through this forum please be respectful of their confidentiality and do not bring any comments made on here up in public. HUGS is not a crisis center, and therefore by extension neither is this forum. If you are in a crisis please go to your nearest emergency room. As a counseling center, HUGS is a mandated reporter . This means if you report any plans to harm yourself or someone else, or report any kid of child or elder abuse we will have to report that to the appropriate authorities. Try not to type in all caps, it will look like you are screaming. We're all excited here, but let's be mindful of tones that might be hard to read over the computer. Try not to write anything sarcastic or angry, we want this to be a safe space for everyone that brings value to your concerns. Be respectful of other's opinions. By joining our discussion board we assume you have read and agreed to these rules. If you are not adhering to these guidelines you will be removed.
