Hi there! Welcome to TeenHelp!

My name is Sam and I'm a
Community Mentor here on the site. In short, that means that I'm here to help you find your way around and answer any questions about TeenHelp's various features. I'm also always around for a chat, whether it's because you need advice on something you're going through or because you just feel like having a conversation.
One of the first things I like to encourage new users to do is to create a thread in our Arrivals and Departures forum (
here). It's one of the fastest ways to introduce yourself to our community and start connecting with other users. Plus, I know we would all love to give you a proper TeenHelp welcome! Once you've done that, feel free to spend some time perusing the site. One of the best things about TeenHelp is that there really is something for everyone. If you enjoy learning about a variety of topics, our selection of Articles (
here) might be a great place for you to start. If you're seeking advice, but are unsure about posting in the forums, you may want to try out HelpLINK (
here) which allows you to seek advice from our
HelpLINK Mentors in a more private format. Or, if writing is your thing, you can share your thoughts with us via a blog (
here). If there's something specific you're hoping to get out of your time here, please feel free to shoot me a message! I'd be more than happy to point you in the right direction.
I also really enjoy getting to know our new users, so I have a couple fun questions for you. You're free to answer as many or as few as you'd like, but I'd love to use it as an opportunity to learn some things about you. What's your favorite movie? Is there a place you've always wanted to visit? What's the most exciting thing you've done in the last year?
I'm looking forward to seeing you around the site and getting to know you better!
