Submit your stories

Hi there! Are you here to submit your story? The Personal Stories section is meant to help and inspire others who are struggling. Before you submit something, let’s make sure you're in the right place. We just have a few questions:

Also, please know that if you submit something that states you are in crisis, we:

  • may not receive your submission right away.
  • cannot post your submission.
  • cannot respond to you.
  • may need to contact police to ensure your safety.

QUESTION 1: Is your submission about you or a friend currently being in crisis? Are you at risk of hurting yourself or someone else, or at risk of committing suicide? Or are you currently in some other kind of harm or danger?

Please get help immediately!

Call 911 or get yourself to the nearest hospital now. You can also call a crisis line in your area.

Get the help you need and deserve! When you are safe, you can come back and share your story with others at a better time!

QUESTION 2: Is your submission a question about yours or a friend‘s mental health?

If you are unsure about what‘s wrong and need mental health information, go to the Help section.

To talk to someone immediately, call Kids Help Phone at 1-800-668-6868 or chat online with a Mental Health Helpline Information and Referral Specialist.

QUESTION 3: Looks like you are ready to submit your personal story... Do you need help getting started?

Mental health isn't always pretty. There's not always a storybook ending and struggles just don't end the day you decide to get help. It's a process that we're all working through and we commend you for that.

That said, the personal stories on this site are meant to help others who are struggling. It's here to promote healthy coping and resilience - it's so you know you're not alone.

So think about the story you want to submit. Are you ready to tell your story? Will it help inspire others?

Come back another time. We'll be here when you're ready to share your story with others at a better time! Go back to homepage or check out one of these sections: Help Personal Stories, Music & More, Toolbox, Mobile & Apps
