Is there a way to share a question without anyone else seeing?

Hi GS_6,

If you'd like, we have private boards where only a few other users can see, and only staff can comment. You can also text or chat us with a question if you'd rather not discuss it on the boards.

Hi Amanda. Where can I locate these private message boards? And also, when can I text or chat? Thanks.

Hey GS_6,

You can find more information about texting here -- it is always available.

Information about when our chat is live is here.

I'm working on getting you information about private boards as well, but these two avenues work very well!

GS-6: that area of the boards is something we have mainly for when people need extra safety, like when they are talking about abuse with someone they live with. Is that the kind of situation you're in?

If not, you can ask here (no one here knows who you are, and your handle is really anonymous) or you can swing around during our live chat hours -- listed here: https://www.scarleteen.com/need_help_no ... t_services -- and ask that way, if you like. Those are just you and a staff member.
