I don't have any support. Maybe I do, I don't really know what that means. Is there an article about it? How do I explain to someone what being a support person entails? If I don't know.....how would they?

That's a little , by little I mean a lot, ageist. Why have a crisis line just for people under 30? So all the poor people that call them in crisis are given the message they are too old to be supported? That has to be one of the most terrible things I've ever heard. They are lucky some of my alters didn't call them bc we would have given them a verbal educatio
