Submission & Sharing Guidelines

Anonymous Submission Guidelines:

This is a reflective blog and writing space. Not a clinical service. All submissions are voluntary and completely anonymous. Please do not include names, places, or identifying details. By submitting a note or story, you grant permission for it to be shared publicly in an edited, anonymous format to support community healing.

Your submission does not create a patient–provider relationship.

Legal & Ethical Boundary Statement:

This platform is not therapy and does not provide medical, psychiatric, or crisis support. Stories shared here are for reflective and educational purposes only and do not represent the lived experience of any identified person.

Story Publication Disclaimer:

Not all submissions will be published. Stories may be edited for clarity, tone, and anonymity. Published stories reflect themes common to many people and are not intended to depict any individual’s specific experience.

Privacy, Review & Retention:
Notes submitted to this site are reviewed privately and thoughtfully selected for sharing, with up to two anonymous notes published weekly. Original submissions are permanently deleted within 7 days of review or publication and are not archived or retained.​

Gentle Participation Statement:

If you choose to share a note, know that your voice may help someone else feel less alone.

Your words matter, even when whispered.
