Wondering if I can help also. I work on a suicide crisis team and have worked in mental health for the last 14 years. I am professionally qualified and currently running a treatment program for those with repeated self harm and suicidal behaviours. Happy to lend some technical skill and compassion to this wonderful tribe.
The best thing you can do to help is to keep an eye out hear and reach out when someone is hurting. That's the biggest contribution possible. There's also /t/psychology and /t/suicide for general discussion of psychology both clinical and research and suicide specifically where I'm sure you could share a lot of that technical expertise to an interested audience.
Honestly, being a mod doesn't put you in a special position to help, it just means that I have the responsibility of making sure to keep out the judgement and recrimination.
