Hi @Paulette ,
I'm sorry you feel this way.
I actually do know people who work on Lifeline, and whether they are volunteers or not, they do get training.
And you are right in saying I am not a psychologist - it's true, I'm not a psychologist. I'm a peer support worker.
Happy to discuss if you are interested in knowing the difference.
I apologise if I have caused you upset in anyway.
You are welcome to email team@saneforums.org if you'd like to discuss the post further.
Once again, I apologise for any hurt and it was not my intention in any way.
Kindest, tyme

Today wasn't great @Former-Member
Been trying hard to do some self care.
I am glad you got some downtime for yourself.

Haven't done a lot today @Former-Member
Went to the supermarket and the chemist. Then did some cleaning around the house.
Will probably end up going to bed early tonight. If I stay up my thoughts will just get worse.
