Heart beating fast
Your own voice repetitively fearing everything most people wouldn't think twice about.
Legs weak, feeling like jelly.
Dizziness sets in as heart beats harder.
Oh shit, am I going to pass out or die this time?
The cycle of anxiety & panic attacks.
Many times there are triggers, other times, hard to find the trigger.

"Just days before Christmas, Twitter disabled a feature that displayed suicide prevention and other safety resources in response to user searches for content on certain topics. After outcry by consumer safety groups and Twitter users, the function has been restored.
The feature was identified by the hashtag #ThereIsHelp and would provide information at the top of search results whenever a Twitter user looked up topics that included suicide,"

@eirliani I’m glad the #ThereIsHelp functionality us back at #twitter. But ffs, every shit-tier tinker made by #elonmusk reminds me of a brand new #vbulletin forum admin selecting then selecting all the options in the admin panel to see what they do.
It would be funny if it wasn’t so pathetic.

Twitter's suicide prevention feature restored hours after it went mising #Twitter #Thereishelp https://www.neowin.net/news/twitters-suicide-prevention-feature-restored-hours-after-it-went-mising/

Musk restored the #ThereIsHelp suicide, HIV, gender-based violence prevention feature to Twitter.
The security head said they removed it temporarily while working on it.
A former member of the security council said you typically make an upgraded version w/o taking the old one down.
Reuters: "AIDS United...received about 70 referrals a day through the feature. Since its removal...that number had fallen to just 14."
Sometimes, (sincere and in good faith) loud outcries work

ちょっとだけ補足します。
#ThereIsHelp は自然災害やCOVID、人身売買などの情報提供に藻情報提供に藻使われている機能だということです。画面は見たことがありますが、名前を知るのはいいことですね。今回削除されたのは自殺のみ。マスクがどのような指示を出したのかはいずれ明らかになることでしょう。
その場凌ぎの言い訳だったのか、それとも、見かけの上では全く違いのわからない変更をするために一度機能を削除しなければならなかったのか。このサービスを運営する組織がないのか。
自治体の粒度で窓口が掲載される #ThereIsHelp の運営は生半なものではありませんし、担当者たちは当然ながらクビになっているでしょうから。 -
CW: CW: Talk of Suicide Prevention Service Removal
On the birdsite, Elon Musk ordered the removal of features that promoted suicide prevention hotlines and other safety resources to users looking up certain content. Why would you remove #ThereIsHelp ?

#ThereIsHelp という名前をはじめて知りました。
自殺や児童虐待の兆候が投稿や検索を実行すると相談窓口を表示する機能ですが、Twitterはこの機能を12月の20日ごろから止めていました。削除を報じた記事を出す際、ロイターはTwitterに問い合わせていますがその時点では返答がなかったようです（コメントなしという記事はガーディアンなどで読むことができます）。複数のメディアが騒いだ後で、TwitterはGoogleの取り組みをまねたいので、一時的に削除している、という返答をロイターに送ってきています。
確かに現在、 #ThereIsHelp は復活しています。内容が変わったかどうかは私にはわかりません。電話番号を表示するしかないGoogleよりもアカウントにメッセージを送れるTwitterの方が優れていたとは思うんですけどね。マストドンに #ThereIsHelp はありません。OSMのようなシビル開発で実現していきたいところです。
#ThereIsHelp いい言葉です。日本語なら #話を聞くよ でしょうか。

CW: Today in Elon: #ThereIsHelp removal news
Reuters posted about chief catturd removing #ThereIsHelp yesterday.
#birdsite "head of trust and safety" Ella Irwin emailed Reuters: "we have been fixing and revamping our prompts. They were just temporarily removed […] We expect to have them back up next week." (Great timing.)
Eliza Bleu: "It wasn’t on purpose. That’s why I tweeted out that it would be back up tonight and it was."
Not in Dutch. (I admit I never used it.)

CW: "Elon Musk ‘orders Twitter to remove suicide prevention feature’"
On Musks orders, Twitter removed the #ThereIsHelp-note that linked users searching for certain terms to help-hotlines and similar resources. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2022/dec/23/elon-musk-orders-twitter-to-remove-suicide-prevention-feature
Why? There is one explanation many are googling for:
Is Elon Musk Ebenezer Scrooge?
His face is rendered into well-known movies, there are many comments on this, and even a song.
But what about us? Are we living in a Dickensian nightmare, and how do we escape it? -
Expect another round of lawsuits coming soon... This is totally crazy and avoidable...
#SocialMedia #Twitter: "Twitter Inc removed a feature in the past few days that promoted suicide prevention hotlines and other safety resources to users looking up certain content, according to two people familiar with the matter who said it was ordered by new owner Elon Musk.

CW: Suicide risk, mental health, twitter
Twitter removing the #ThereIsHelp feature *over the Christmas period* which is well known to be one of the highest suicide rate times of the year, makes me feel sick to my stomach. I don't even have the words to express how disgusted I am by this.
