1. Help Is One Call Away

If you’re in the United States and struggling with mental health, emotional stress, alcohol or drug concerns, or you just need someone to talk to, help is only three digits away. Dial 988 to connect with a trained crisis counselor instantly.

You’re not alone. Sometimes the bravest thing you can do is ask for help, and 988 makes it quick and judgment-free. Even if you’re not in crisis, you can save this number, it may help you or someone you love one day.

2. Don’t Forget Your Treasures

When writing a will, don’t just list your house, car, and bank accounts, remember your special treasures too. Antiques, collectibles, art, or coin collections can have big value, but only if your heirs know what they’re worth. Without guidance, they might get tossed aside or sold for pennies.

Make a simple list with photos, descriptions, and rough values. This way, your loved ones not only inherit your possessions but also the stories and meaning behind them.

3. The Awkward-Moment Fix

Accidentally got sent an embarrassing photo or message? Instead of making things awkward, just reply with:

“I don’t see it.”

“It’s not loading on my end.”

This small trick saves the sender from embarrassment and keeps the moment lighthearted. After all, we’ve all made digital slip-ups before!
