How to Make Money in Second Life - from the SL Enquirer
The content in the above pages was originally created by Lucrezia Lamont and friends and distrubuted in a set of notecards entitled "Luneko New Resident Resource Kit." Sadly, Lucrezia is no longer in Second Life. The notecards were last updated in mid-2007, but the information is still surprisingly good. We will continue to keep these pages up to date.
Here are some links to other help pages for new residents:
Cyber Security for Second Life
Depression and Suicide Help
Do you feel qualified to counsel someone who is depressed and may be considering suicide? I don't either. Here is some information that may help you refer a resident to a group that can help them. The first three links are articles that appeared in The SL Enquirer.
Crisis Intervention Manual - Piedmont Rape Crisis Center
DEPRESSION IN SL, PART 1: How do you reach out for help or help others overcome emotional issues
Depression In Second Life Part 2 - Interview with Lanai Jarrico
Depression and Suicide in SL Part 3 - Avoid the Final Solution To A Temporary Problem - Interview with Krissy Sinclair
From the first article, here are some Second Life groups that may be of assistance to a resident suffering from depression.
