Don't struggle alone. You are not alone. Our community is here to support you through your journey. We provide a safe space where you can talk openly and honestly with others about the ups and downs of life, specifically battles with mental health.
Our community loves having new people to talk to. Interacting with others will help you feel better and may help you see situations from a new perspective. It's an easy first step before talking to your GP.
TalkLife is a global social network where people can talk openly and honestly with others about the ups and downs of life- specifically battles with mental health. TalkLife members must be above 16 years and enter an age verification on sign up. If you have a child under the age of 16 and you believe they are using TalkLife, we encourage you to remove the account using the delete account function.
They can use TalkLife to give and get support from other people who are going through similar things. It's a place where no-one need feel alone or judged for who they are. It is not a crisis support service.
We are an online peer support community and not a clinical service. We cannot diagnose or treat users and we do not provide advice or professional support. If you are worried about your own mental or physical health or someone else's please seek professional help from a doctor or qualified health practitioner.
TalkLife is not a crisis support service and we cannot support users who are suicidal. If someone is in need of immediate support we urge them to contact the emergency services or one of the resources listed in our help centre.
We are unable to provide crisis support through TalkLife. As such we do not allow posts that actively discuss suicide attempts or methodologies. We prominently provide resources on where to seek crisis support help in our 'I need help' section in app. We also provide pop up signposting to users when they have drafted content that suggests they're in crisis.
Please see our community guidelines for more information on what we allow and don't allow.
TalkLife works with law enforcement agencies to help people on the platform stay safe.

Essentially, no, your friends won't be able to find you if you don't want them to. Be careful with what you share on any network, especially personally identifiable information.
