GEEKS STAND TOGETHER FOR MENTAL HEALTH
Geek Network stands with you for Mental Health. We are here to provide Mental Health Resources and help in any way we can.
Geek Network Entertainment is more than just an entertainment outlet. We are all people, friends, brothers, sisters, sons, fathers, and most of all geeks. We all have our struggles and our stories of depression, anxiety, and suicide.
Nobody’s story or fight is the same, but you are not alone. If you or someone you love suffers from depression or suicidal thoughts, please reach out for help, whether it be a loved one, the Suicide hotline, or us. We are all here for you. In the words of Chester Bennington “ Who cares if one more light goes out? Well, I do.”
We care and we hope that we can be a resource for you to have someone there for you in the times that our minds overpower our souls. Don’t ever stop looking for the light in the darkness.
From everyone at the Geek Network Entertainment staff, we love you and geek out.
