If you know other hotlines that provide support that are not on this list, feel free to contact a BlogTeam member to add it to this list.
Regarding replies that mention or are about religion: Generally, religion should be avoided when replying to other people to give them hugs, such as stating that you will be praying for them. However, exceptions will be made if the person asking for hugs is asking for prayers from people who practice the same religion as them or if they are open about what religion they practice. Otherwise, people who do not practice the same religion or do not practice any religion should steer clear of providing religion-related comfort if they don’t know if another BlogClanner practices a specific religion.
A note from BlogTeam: From now on, we will no longer moderate comments on the Hug Page that go into specific detail about events. Instead, commenters will post in a vague manner, such as โIโm having a bad day, I could really use some hugsโ, and other BlogClanners are welcome to provide comfort and support. This change is not because of any specific event or person, but because it is extremely difficult to mitigate questionable comments and determine what parts of certain comments are suitable to moderate, as well as making sure that replies with advice are in no way harmful to the original poster or others. If you ever feel like you need advice about a serious situation, you are welcome to reach out to BlogTeam, because your health and safety is our top priority. However, no one on BlogTeam is or has ever been a mental health professional in any way, and all we can do is provide advice. We implore you to always reach out to a trusted adult or hotline (listed above) about a situation that worries you. You are still welcome to come to the Hug Page if you need any hugs or comfort from your BlogClan peers, but the cause of your distress can no longer be explainedโโno matter the situation. Thank you so much for understanding <3

Slight update!
The nosebleeds are continuously happening (had 2 today, 1 right before an important event) so if any of you have any nosebleed management tips, I’d appreciate it ๐
I just keep a stack of tissues with me and try not to rub my nose too much.
*Hugs*
Here’s a batch of freshly baked cupcakes for you: ๐ง๐ง๐ง๐ง๐ง๐ง๐ง๐ง๐ง๐ง๐ง๐ง
Sounds rough…
Try applying healing ointment or Vaseline inside your nose with a cotton swab, works pretty well to heal the skin and keep it moisturized.
*hugs*
*hugs* I’m so sorry, Osprey. I can relate and it absolutely sucks, my nose is literally so dry that the slightest rub causes it to bleed and its so annoying. I hope you feel better soon though <3

Sending lots of hugs your way. This a scary and stressful time for many, including myself, and you’re not alone in these feelings. โค๏ธ
Same Clow, it’s scary but we can only hope for the best. *hugs*
We are going to get though this together *hugs*
My family got this cat for a week and it hates me even tho I haven’t been anything but nice to it…..
Now my whole family is bonding w the cat while I’m crying in my room because it runs off the moment I get up…..why does it hate me
The thing is I was really looking forward to getting this cat
*hugs*
Maybe try giving it treats, or just putting your hand out when it comes in the room so it can sniff your hand? Or when it comes in, just donโt make any moves to pet it, so that it doesnโt see you as a threat, and and after a couple of days, try to slowly pet it. I hope you can start bonding with it soon!
I’m so sorry for you Snow Snow!
Be patient with the cat and try not to stay in its way!
*Hugs*
*Hugs*
*Hugs*
*Hugs*
iโve never had a cat before due to my mom being severely allergic, but just try and take it slow with the cat. it could just take some time! try and let it come to you slowly, have some treats ready for it, and be gentle with your movements. just be patient, some animals take time with different people ^^
*Hugs* โค๏ธ๐งก๐๐๐๐๐
Love Is Love
Unfortunately, you can’t force an animal to love you, but you can do everything you can to build a bond
Bonds don’t happen in the first week, they happen over months, and you have time to get to know your kitten!
You want the kitten to build positive associations with you, like ‘Snowo = Play’ or ‘Snowo = Food’ or something. To build these connotations, go down and start playing with the kitten on a regular basis, or always being the one to feed the kitten. Baby talk to them, stroke them, and once they feel comfortable, pick them up. Hope this helps!
Also, even if you’re upset, maybe avoid going to your room when everyone is with the kitten ๐
It may feel embarrassing, but pets can often sense when you are sad, and pets are good sources of comfort. On top of that, the more time you spend around your cat, the more they will be used to you, making stronger friendships ๐
*Hugs* That’s happened to me too with dogs before (where dogs will go to my sister and, like, completely ignore me and go out of their way to avoid me), but just let the cat grow more comfortable around you and adapt to the new environment, so just be patient :). I hope you can form a strong bond with them!
*Hugs*
*Hugs*
*Hugs*
I’m sorry Snowo.. *hugs*
(this is why dogs are better)
(Please keep in mind that โwell this wouldnโt have happened with a dogโ probably isnโt exactly what Snowo needs to hear right now.)
Love Is Love
(Snowo and I are close, and I’m sure she knew I meant it lightheartedly. There wasn’t really any need to interfere)
I really have no idea what to say in response. I thought I was being nice, but was I actually not? Did everyone besides me realize you were being lighthearted when you said that?
(Mods? Was I right to say something, or is Nightwind correct, and I shouldnโt have interfered?)
Love Is Love
It could’ve easily been read both ways, as Nightlily below demonstrated. Personally, I did interpret it more as a joke when I modded it. You aren’t necessarily wrong for saying something, you just were missing the context for why Nightwind felt it was okay to say that (i.e. that they were close and it was more likely to be said in a lighthearted tone between them). You’re not at fault for not knowing the extent of the relationship between Snowo and Nightwind, so ultimately your comment just came off as slightly unnecessary but with good intentions. I’m sure that Nightwind knows that no harm was intended ^^
Thank you, Embix.
Love Is Love
That’s not exactly what I meant… but sure
(my dog bites me if he doesn’t get attention and my cats bring me their toy mouse as a present (: (just saying))
i dont have a cat because like my entire family is allergic, but maybe just idk like be really quiet around it and maybe start by being in the same room at first and then ig just get closer and closer idk i dont really have much csat experience

That is so sad. Hopefully it will change. I want a cat, but I’m pretty sure I’ll never convince my parents.

Here, have some muffins (they REALLY need to make a muffin emoji): ๐ง๐ง๐ง๐ง๐ง๐ง๐ง๐ง
*hugs*
*hugs* when we got our two loving kitties, Sipi and Morris, Morris, the more timid one ran away whenever I stepped into the room as well.
I gained his trust from being very calm around him and being very nice.
It maybe took about a month (?) to gain his trust enough to swing my hands around wildly next to him without him running away ๐
(He probably became scared of me, because I once accidentally almost fell on top of him)
*hugs* Snow, I’m sure the cat doesn’t hate you, but maybe it feels your coming off too strong because cats aren’t social creatures like dogs and don’t like much attention. Just be patient and calm around the cat and show it no interest until it starts warming up to you. <3

Long story short I really hate myself right now and I could use some hugs and maybe some encouraging words?

Hating yourself is maybe the most childish thing we all do even when we’re older, because we just can’t accept the fact that we aren’t supposed to be perfect. I’m not saying you’re childish. I’m saying that at one point of our life we need to stop hating the way we feel, the way we think or the way we are. And if you’re asking, I sometimes hate myself too. You just need to find the positive light not only at the end, but also in every moment!
Hope this helps!
