Introduction

We set up an anonymous hotline so that strangers could share their secrets and confessions. These are some of the calls we received: "I feel like I'm lost in life and I'm never going to amount to anything" "Every day feels like I'm going to die, but I don't want to live like this," says Alyssa who is married to a registered sex offender. 'Sometimes I just get really lonely even being with somebody else,' says one woman whose mother is alcoholic.
