I'll say it. This takes balls. From top to bottom, to roll something out like this takes a lot of people championing the right thing for the right reasons. And, huge balls.
As part of our growing efforts to support communities on Discord, we're very proud to partner with Crisis Text Line, which provides volunteer Crisis Counselors available 24/7 to help you or a friend through any mental health crisis.

Let me stop you right there. You are doing a disservice to people who take responsibility for their mental health. We have to stop pathologizing evil in the name of mental health. Understand it, yes, quietly.
But call it what it is.
Evil.
And get it the fuck away from kids.

I wanted to share a little good news amidst the heartbreak over the past weeks. These weeks have solidified my belief that when systems fail us, we must mobilize to make things right. The system I have chosen to address is mental health and how it is failing young people.

"Healthy Gamer" was actually supposed to be a book.
We couldn't get an agent to take this seriously in 2019, so
@dr_alokkanojia
started streaming.
As a result this book is better!
So much more evidence, more immersion into the lives of gamers, and more empathy as a parent.
I don’t post often, and this felt like an important milestone to share.

I'm often counseled to be *aware* and *notice* my emotions. This is what anger feels like:
- Ears get warm
- Head starts pounding loudly
- Eyes start blurring
- Breathing slows dramatically
- Eyes get hot
At which point, step away from the keyboard.

I’ll go:
- you don’t need venture funding
- stay true to your mission, and your mental will follow
- your team is everything
- if you’re in it for the money, you are more likely to fail (and waste a LOT of money in the process)
- there is true joy in creating something
What no-one tells you about starting a startup:
- You most likely won't make life changing money
- Your mental health is always at risk
- You don't need to create the next Facebook
- You'll fail forward
- You are constantly getting rejected
- It's a beautiful ride

I’ve said this a thousand times and will say it again. Mental health is a labor problem. We need more entry level support in the form of coaching and peers. They are affordable and effective.

3 - Reallocate mental health funding to young people as a whole instead of niche communities. Mental health is getting worse in urban and rural areas. White and people of color. Affluent and poor. Quit studying subgroups and look at the big picture.
