When I first texted 2NDFLOOR I was not sure what to do. I was having a very difficult time with my family and I did not want to bother my friends with my problems since they have problems of their own. I also just don’t like opening up to people that think I should be strong. I don’t want judgement and I don’t want people treating my family different. As soon as I got a response from a counselor I felt like I was talking to someone I had known for a long time. It is funny because I didnt even know their name and they didn’t know mine but I knew I could tell them anything and they would listen. Sometimes I feel like that is all I need. Is just someone to listen and that is why I use 2NDFLOOR. I even tell my friends and family to use 2NDFLOOR in case they ever feel like I do. I tell them all the time there is nothing to lose.
