Fair enough Meg, maybe I should have written 'assistance'. I understand what you mean as I have done a 'Listening Course' which is on a similar basis and NO we never give advice, but we do give assistance with the 'act' of listening and being able to understand etc.

Re: Have you ever rang The Samaritans?

unfortunately yes I call them every Christmas as that is the most difficult time for me. for reasons I wont go into as I already have talked about it the day I joined, it was in a reply to SnowKat just yesterday, I am glad and grateful that they are there it helps me to get past that time of year. Nothing strange going on just that day is too difficult the sadness is a bit overwhelming so I thank God for them.
