If you are having a medical, emotional, mental, or other crisis, please, please, please, do not go to a Tumblr askbox for help. Even the kindest, most knowledgable, most sympathetic blogger is not online 24/7 and may have a high ask volume, not to mention Tumblr’s system is notoriously unreliable. If it’s an emergency, DO NOT USE TUMBLR MESSAGES. Use a 24/7 hotline and/or your local emergency number. And never, ever, ever, ever, ever assume that your crisis didn’t matter because a blogger didn’t answer your ask. You ALWAYS matter. Tumblr doesn’t always cooperate.
