About The Safe Place
the safe place is a ressource for anyone who needs it. whether you are looking for resources because you are experiencing problems with your mental health, want to help a loved one or just need a place to relax and breathe.my name is sunniva and i am the owner and creator of this carrd.i'm a 22 year old social studies uni student from germany and i made this carrd because mental health and helping others is always a cause I have been very passionate about.
i have struggled with mental health in a huge portion of my life and think there is a severe lack in resources and awareness around the subject.i live a happy and stable life nowadays, but i didn't always use to be so lucky. it took a lot of work and the necessary resources to get to the place i'm in today.
before i created this page, a friend reached out to me because they were struggling with anxiety and in need of guidance so they asked me if i knew about any initiatives that could help. apart from advocating for mental health and helping people in need, the safe place's purpose is to collect as many resources as possible, that anyone can access, in one space so that you don't have to go looking for everything yourself.this is not just my page, any recommendations are welcome and i hope we can all help and learn from each other.
