On this episode of Friends Talking Nerdy, join The Reverend Tracy and Tim the Nerd as they talk about maintaining good mental health during the holiday season. Notes for this episode were derived from these sources:

If you are experiencing bouts of depression during the holiday, it is important to reach out to someone. Contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (1-800-273-8255) or Crisis Text Line (text HOME to 741741) to get the help you need today.

With everything going on in the world, please consider helping The Trevor Project if you can. They are currently looking for a trained remote Crisis Support Counselor.
Consider supporting the ACLU as well. The attack on the Trans community will end up in court rooms around the country. Supporting the ACLU in any way helps give voice to the voiceless.
Consider supporting The Brigid Alliance. Attacks on abortion are at an all time high. The Brigid Alliance helps people arrange funds and support for people looking to have an abortion.
