What do I do with a crisis message, or someone who treats me as their therapist?


    Do not answer it as a coaching question. Let it expire, which costs the asker nothing, or reply in one line naming the help they actually need.

    This comes up most in the niches that earn most

    Relationship, divorce and dating coaching are 464 of the 550 paid answers on Nudge, and they carry the highest chance of a message that belongs with a licensed professional or a crisis line. Decide your line before it arrives.
