User mental health episode.

Thank you to the user for reaching out to me on Discord and updating me on the situation.

My apologies Gentle Listeners, while I was away on my day off a fellow user was spam-posting what seemed like a very bad mental health episode that was going on for the last 3 hours and unfortunately, I did not catch it in time before the subreddit was flooded.

I have decided to initiate a soft ban for the user. I will personally contact them, offer free mental health assistance, and attempt to pinpoint their location for a wellness check.

Again, my apologies for not catching this sooner. If anything like this happens again, feel free to ping me anytime on Discord at bean2796 or my screenname at fordf1soupy.

For anyone else feeling this way and having mental health struggles please know that you are not alone. If you are looking for resources or just a shoulder to lean on, feel free to message me anytime, or the fellow mods in mod mail for additional resources, some of which I will link below. We as a community will always be here for you. <3

UPDATE: I was able to get some more info and call in for a wellness check on the gentle listener in question, but they are making alt accounts and posting from them. If you see them please report and us mods will handle. For now they are safe and ok, and I will be doing what I can to help while they go through this difficult time.
