Prince William and Kate and new parents Prince Harry and Meghan announced a new crisis text line, Shout, to help people struggling with mental health issues. https://gma.abc/2HdEc0J
Prince William and Kate and new parents Prince Harry and Meghan teamed up to launch a new project inspired by their work on mental health.
The royal “Fab Four,” as the in-laws are known, launched Shout, a free text messaging service that offers 24/7 support for people struggling with mental health issues, on Friday.
“Texting is private and silent. It opens up a whole new way to find help. It provides instant support,” Prince William said in a video about the initiative. “You can have a conversation anywhere and any time, at school, at home on the bus, anywhere.”

Excellent
God Bless them! ðŸ™ÂÂ
Hypothetically, I would personally reject any mental health service offered by the British Royals. Since mental illness is statistically much more common amongst the oppressed, it stands to reason that THIS service would only be of value to a small percentage of the mentally distressed population.
RIP incredible Diana.
It is heartbreaking to me that mental and emotional health is so low on the priority list, and so misunderstood. People are unable to get treatment many times, or insurance coverage is very limited or non existent. People often suffer from others making fun of their conditions or are plagued by the ubiquitous "just snap out of it" mentality. Kudos to the royals for their efforts. How about someone of influence and wealth doing the same thing in the U.S.?
When will day go to Africa …
I'm proud of these brothers because somebody had to do it and the government sure the hell ain't doing nothing about mental health. So yes I'm thankful to Prince William and Prince Harry for stepping up to the plate and tackling mental health cuz that's exactly what needs to be tackled thank you
Well truly this just made my day today I am really proud of Prince William Kate Middleton Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle for making this decision to step up and try to make awareness is for mental illness thank you thank you thank you to the Windsor Family to Queen Elizabeth
What an awesome initiative. Mental health is a huge part of every day life. We sit by coworkers, family members and strangers who suffer in silence for fear of being ostracized.
So , cheers to the young royals for bringing more light to mental health.ðŸ‘ÂÂðŸÂ¼ðŸ‘ÂÂðŸÂ¼ðŸ‘ÂÂðŸÂ¼
Could service be used even though I live in another county?
Brilliant! Thank you so much , very needed ✨â¤ï¸ÂÂ
Oh you mean like Doctor’s on demand or a Suicide Prevention Hot Line but for texting?
Great job! This app is much needed for this suffering with any sort of illness.
Trolls go take a joke.. at least they’re contributing something positive and attempting to make an impact.. stop trying to shit on their idea.
Thank you Royal Fab Four. This should be world wide
That's wonderfulðŸ‘ÂÂðŸ‘ÂÂðŸ‘ÂÂ

Another 💩
I don’t think they call themselves fab 4
Smart.. but enough apps,..
Get real and open ur mind..
How can this be anyone from what I hard before! They sing The same song over and over about Mental Health!
No they live in the world that is here. The phone just happens to be here and all** the stuff on it, the phone that is, is because of other humans, not because of the phone. Just like guns don't kill people, people do or are sent to.
Does this include people harassing people who are struggling???? Because it should.
