Forging friendships can have a remarkable effect on mental health. Whether in person or online, geniune connection can create a positive, meaningful experience. We built Discord with this in mind. We give people the tools to easily create spaces that can help them make these connections. It can be as simple as a server for a few friends to hang out while they’re doing homework after school, or as wide-ranging as a server dedicated to a favorite video game or sports team that anyone can join. We see our role as helping people come together. Read how Discord spaces, big and small, help make that happen. #mentalhealthmatters #onlinecommunities

I find good friends on discord from many countries that I know more than their own parents. I'm really thankful to it, but it still need work on moderation and banning people. There is a guy in Discord named Cyclipp(he changed his name to clip900k) who harass, slander mods being a pedo but date a minor himself, misogynistic, and glorifying gang violence. 9+ of my friends and me included has been the victim and he was never banned permanently on discord. His server name is DTB (Dont Trust B*tch*s) Homies Hood, and his minor gf is Jleaks a Saudi 13 yo girl. Clip900k has harassed a 10yo malaysian girl, a 14 yo malaysian girl by leaking both of their privacy photos that he had asked from them by threatening them. Harassed so many Minors and act like gangster. And never was banned. I hope Discord staff would take care of this in the future

I love this! As an adolescent Mental Health therapist, I see first hand how many teens are struggling to feel connected to the world. Many struggle socially and discord has been the only outlet for some. They’re able to be themselves and feel community.

Discord - I am here for this. I'm a tenacious educator, a bilingual mom, and a fervent fan. Young people have fewer and fewer options for physical space to hang out - thanks for providing a virtual space that is safer than most! I'm applying immediately!
