Player Wellness

Player safety and health are important to the staff of MCSkinHistory. However, please understand that the MCSkinHistory staff does not have formal training to provide one-on-one care. This article is a guide to help you or a friend reach out to individuals or organizations who are better equipped to provide assistance and care for mental well-being.

If you are feeling depressed, suicidal, or facing other emotional health challenges, please read further on this page for some sources that can help you or a friend you are concerned for.

If you encounter an issue with another person threatening or harassing you on MCSkinHistory's services, please contact [email protected] immediately.
