No. This service is strictly peer-to-peer support and is not a substitute for clinical therapy, medical advice, or professional crisis support. We don’t provide diagnoses or treatment plans; we provide a grounded, human ear and a supportive conversation. This is simply one person helping another navigate difficult moments.

I am ethically required to report conversations like this to the appropriate sources.
