800 Service

I was thinking about adding a toll free number to my web site.
I wanted this number to be used for people who need support , who need direction to a local support group. I want it also be used for those wanting to reach out and discuss their weight loss struggles.

Would I be opening up a can of worms ? 
I would need to make sure to disclose that the number was not to be used as a replacement for surgeons orders or medical advice ? 

I seen where someone did this on another site for an eating disorder.
I already do one on one mentoring ...

Your thoughts ....

Tink, I think that's a noble idea, but honestly, my opinion is that you would be inundated with people calling you wanting "couch time with Tink".  It might sound bad of me, but to tell the truth if you did that, you might be biting off a bigger piece than you can chew.  Doing things like that can take a major toll on ya.  You should know that after talking with my sorry ass so much!  JMHO...LOL  Love you girl.

It's very good of you wanting to do this, Tink, but i think you would be taking way too much on yourself.  And there could be legal ramifications.  Worst case scenario: someone offs herself and blames you for not being there when she called...you end up feeling guilty and getting sued.  I just think you'd be leaving yourself open to bad stuff beyond your control.  Be careful.
