I fully aggree. Many countries have multiple hotlines catering for people from different backgrounds. That is definitely a better alternative, especially for people who feel like they don't want to burden someone. Due to anonimity - it bridges that gap of safety of opening and getting that so needed human contact which can pull one through a hard time. After the biggest step - opening up is done, one should however try and turn into either friends or profesional therapy.
A bit unfortunate thing though, is that many of those hotlines are extremely underfunded and sometimes short staffed. More PR and funding would for sure help more people to reach out to them.
Thank you, I appreciate your kind words
