OoO, Seems like a tough, but very rewarding job. Suicidal hotlines helped me alot (although I have only called once) and I never think negative much anymore. I know, you will get jittery, and may never get used to it, but I'm pretty sure you will, and also make new friends at this! Good luck and I'll pray for you


PS: You must be great at advice, you are such a wonderful person to do this!

kate you will have someone in the room with you at all times when you do get a call. They will make a grab for the phone if you signal them to do so. At least that is how the place I volunteered at a long time ago did it. Until you are comfortable with what you are doing, they will not leave you alone.

I will send some "be strong" vibes to You.... Kateang
. But like MA said... You will probably be in pairs so you will never have to take a difficult call alone.

Kate, what a wonderful thing for you to do. You've got such a big heart, I'm sure you'll do just fine. If it's not too late, I hope my "you can do it" vibes help!
