Cant Access LGBTQ+ helplines

in South Africa

So recently I've heard about the Trevor Project that is apparently a helpline for LGBTQ+ youth and as a closeted Bisexual with struggles in mental health and a family that are heavily conservative I tried their texting options only to find out it isn't available to use in my country (⁠´⁠;⁠︵⁠;⁠`⁠)

Found more info.

This is so fvcked up.

Here’s the article: https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/lgbtq-youth-calls-to-mental-health-crisis-line-spiked-by-700-percent-after-election-day

imagine how much of a fucking horrible person you have to be that on the first day your elected into office the crisis calls of a Suicide Prevention Project Go Up 33%. The Trevor Project Received over 1,400 Call By Early Monday Afternoon. Most of those calls, if not all, are coming from children. Children scared of you and what you will do. Imagine how much power and how horrible you have to be to do that.
