Community Guidelines
Last updated: August 30, 2026
People come here carrying real things. These guidelines keep this a place where it stays safe to be honest.
Be kind
No bullying, harassment, humiliation, threats or targeting another member. Disagreement is allowed; cruelty is not.
No hate
No hateful or degrading content based on race, ethnicity, religion, sex, disability or other protected characteristics.
Protect privacy
Do not post addresses, phone numbers, passwords, exact school or location information, or anyone else's private information — including your own.
Keep the space appropriate
No sexually explicit content, predatory behavior or inappropriate contact with younger users.
No dangerous encouragement
Do not encourage self-harm, suicide, violence, substance misuse or any other dangerous behavior.
Peer support is not professional treatment
Members should not present themselves as someone's doctor, therapist or mental-health professional unless appropriately licensed, and should never give dangerous medical instructions. Share your experience — not a diagnosis.
Do not pressure people off-platform
Do not pressure another person to privately message you, exchange personal contact information, meet in person or move a conversation somewhere else.
Report concerning content
Community Lounge posts include a Report option. If something feels unsafe, harmful or inappropriate, please report it, or email thehealinglounge26@yahoo.com. Content may be removed and access may be restricted when necessary to protect the community.
