Therapy hotline?

Seriously in need of a good hotline. Not suicide prevention they already turned me down. I'm in serious need of life advice at this point in my life

this is not just a suicide site ,maybe they can help
https://suicidepreventionlifeline.org
If you just need a friend who will listen ,you can message me
I have 3 grown kids and 4 teenage grandkids ,2 lost their Dad when my grandson was 5 so we are still very close ,so a little up on whats still going on in the world ,and I actually still live in it too contrary to the way some young people think (meaning they don't think I get todays world ,that I am out of touch ) I also have a 10 yr old son
So if it a new song thats trending I have to at least hear it
and new movie I have to screen it to see if he can watch it
and new game ,,well he has to play with the sound off
So I am not the normal Grandpa unaware of the world they live in
I am often asked my opinion and for advice ,,some people still think I am useful ,,so if I can help in anyway ,,,I am willing to at least listen
This site has all kinds of things on it ,you just need to navigate it a little
Good luck
I lost a brother to suicide ,,so I beg people needing mental health help to either go to an ER and say you feel like you are a threat to yourself
or call 911 (assuming you are in the US ) and tell them that
Then they will have to help ,,they don't want you harming yourself or others

@KayraJordyn thank you for your concern and support my friend
it was all a misunderstanding ,its dealt with ,
the young man that made the post is fine ,he is concerned about a friend
This man does not know me ,and he also assumes ,the young man is not in Canada
but its all good
I slept my butt off today ,both of my friends loved ones are stable for now
they are both calm ,,God is Good ,,,,
I thought it was like 3 am ,,,and its about to be morning
Time flies in my world ,,time to make some coffee
all that sleep is going to have my day out of whack ,,,but thats what I needed
36 hours with no sleep ,,,,,I should have passed the post anyway
But I guess ,God had other plans ,,maybe I can give the young man some sound advice
Thank you again Kayra ❤ much love
I apologize for getting involved, guys. This person and myself have a history, Rick, both lovely and rocky, and I didn't understand the misunderstanding as you did. Chelsea, I was hoping you would enlighten me. But that's putting my agenda ahead of other things that could really matter. It was selfish. I'm sorry. I hope I haven't caused anyone too much trouble. @rckt148 @SW-User

@KayraJordyn You did nothing wrong and on my part I left the link out concerning resources that go beyond just suicide ,
so I can see how my wording of it could have been misunderstood and seen as unkind and assuming ,
"this in not just a suicide site " was in reference to the link I forgot .
I was so busy explaining why I should not be dismissed so easy as an old man out of touch with todays problems that I might not understand that I left out the main reason I responded in the first place .
So when I read (to be honest because he did make me mad and I was determined to see what I did that was so "close minded "
So once I read it again
I was glad he responded except for the attempt at schooling me about how to deal with people .
I am thankful for such a friend /sister like you that would come to defend my character and me ,,,that was really really sweet .
I was so tired and in such pain from being up so long ,,
You made me feel like at least someone got it ,I am grateful.
When your not busy you should message me sometime ,then we could nail down a time that we are both on and we could talk sometimes
I would very much like that ,,if thats agreeable to you
any way thanks again Kayra ,,as always a pleasure knowing your here
Have an awesome day /night ,♥️🤗

I read everyone's posts. Sorry guys I'm not on often. Usually alone and keep to myself. I'm better now. Just occasional days like this that shut me down

Try YouTube for related vids, motivational etc. I usually talk to my dog, he's a good listener.
