I just got a volunteer position with the Crisis Text Line as a counselor! I start in January and finish training at the end of February. It's nice because I work from home, on the computer, where I'm already online all the time anyway. I can work anywhere from 4-12 hours per week---the schedule is very flexible---and take time for "mental health days" anytime.
Best thing about it is I'll be helping others, and who knows, maybe I'll save a life one day.
