Relationships (teentalk.ca)

Sometimes, we may want help with something on our mind, but we’re not sure how to get started. And if we’re dealing with an issue we find hard to talk about, like a crisis, it can be tough to say it out loud.  You are not alone and the resources below are there to help you.

Whether you are in Penticton, Edmonton or Whitby there are resources for you.

EXTORTION/BLACKMAIL

If someone is trying to blackmail you (threatening to share private information about you if you don’t send them money or something else you’re uncomfortable with), please report it. You should also contact your local law enforcement.

If you don’t want someone to see your posts or contact you on Instagram, keep in mind that you can always block that person. You can also read our tips on how to address abuse on Instagram.
