Sub-Level 3: Room 1 - A Memoir to Our Mental Health & A Descent into Madness

The Backrooms Podcast

Show Notes

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and with it comes the important dialogue that is never had. The boys have both direct & indirect experiences with mental health conflicts, and it is fitting to start here, in the first room of Sub-level 3, as we descend further into The Backrooms. We ask our listeners to make a promise. If you know someone who may struggle with mental health, please check in with them, and say hello. If you need someone to vent to, message us on social media, we will listen.

The United States has transitioned away from the 10-digit National Suicide Prevention Lifeline to 988 – an easy-to-remember three-digit number for 24/7 crisis care. In the UK, the National Suicide Prevention Hotline is open from 6:00pm to midnight every day on 0800 689 5652.

Tutorials can be awesome, but they can also be suck-tacular. They can be brief, or overly drawn-out. They can sometimes hold your hand, and they can sometimes be Dark Souls. The one thing that most games have in common is that they each have one, even if you might not realize that it's there.
