I've never used a crisis textline, but I'm so glad that we have this option available because we didn't have it 10 years ago.

I'm glad you found it very helpful, and thank you for reminding us that crisis textlines are available.

Personally, I would much rather text than talk... because I always sob over the phone whenever I'm in a crisis and talking to my pdoc. Half the time, he doesn't even know what I'm saying because I'm mumbling, and it hurts even more to repeat things
