You do not need to adopt a label, make an announcement or decide everything immediately. Begin with reflection and move at a pace that protects your wellbeing.
Start with the questioning pathway →Digital privacy
Before you reach out.
No privacy measure is perfect. Choose precautions that fit your actual circumstances rather than assuming private browsing makes you anonymous.
Protect your communications
- Use a device and account that other people cannot access.
- Check whether messages appear in lock-screen previews.
- Use only official contact pages before sharing personal details.
- Never give anyone your password or Singpass credentials.
Be careful with browser history
- Private browsing does not hide activity from every network or device administrator.
- Clearing history can itself attract attention in some households.
- If necessary, use a trusted person’s device or a safer location.
- Do not send identity documents to TSMA.
Information and signposting—not crisis intervention.
TSMA is not a crisis service, counselling provider, law firm or government agency. Inclusion here is not a guarantee that a service will be appropriate for every person. Contact the organisation directly about confidentiality, eligibility, cost and availability. TSMA does not receive information you provide to external services.
