Instagram offers Mental Health Support

Picture

Instagram have just announced a new mental health support structure for those who use their social media platform documenting their daily life.  

​"Every day on Instagram, we see people share their mental health journeys and connect with communities of support. From dedicated accounts around an issue to unique hashtags adopted by groups, these communities are helping to make illnesses that are often invisible to friends and family visible through photos and videos.

If you see a post on Instagram from someone who may be in need of mental health support, you can report it anonymously. The next time that person logs into the app, we will connect them to organizations in their country that offer help. We have teams working 24 hours a day, seven days a week to review these reports. We also display these resources when someone visits a hashtag page for a sensitive topic."

​Read More about it on Instagram's blog on support. This is a step in the right direction and more social media platforms should follow.

​So if you see someones post and feel they need help, or you feel in need of some support yourself, Instagram gives you links to select with options that will put you in touch with someone to support you.

If you feel you can help someone or you need support use the hashtag   #hereforyou
