What we are. What we are not.

Skorpion Strength is peer support. Here is exactly what that means.

Last updated: [Effective date]

We are peer support

Skorpion Strength offers peer support and fitness encouragement from people with lived experience. Our supporters are not therapists, counselors, doctors, nurses, dietitians or licensed health professionals, and they do not act as one. [Update if a supporter holds a license, and say so only for the role they actually play here.]

What that means

• We do not diagnose, treat or cure anything.
• We do not give medical, mental health, legal or financial advice.
• We do not replace therapy, medication or any care you already have, and we will never ask you to stop it.
• Peer support can sit alongside professional care. We are glad to work with it.

If you are in danger

We are not an emergency service. If you or someone near you is in danger, call or text 988 (Suicide and Crisis Lifeline), call 911, or call the Nebraska Family Helpline at 888-866-8660. Please do not wait for a reply from us. Messages in the app are not monitored for emergencies.

Movement and fitness

• Exercise carries risk, including injury. Talk to your doctor before you start if you have any health concern.
• A short health check-in comes before any workout.
• Go at your own pace and stop any time. Movement can be a walk, a stretch or a heavy bag.
• Workout ideas are general encouragement, not a personal medical or training prescription.

Wellness and self-care ideas

• Care cards and reminders about water, food, rest and movement are general encouragement. They are not medical, nutrition or diet advice.
• They are not a plan made for you. If you have a health condition, an eating concern or take medication, please talk to your doctor or a dietitian.
• If food or sleep is hard right now, you can tell your supporter. If you are in crisis, call or text 988.

No promises

People's experiences differ. We cannot promise any result, and nothing on our website or app is a guarantee. Stories and examples are meant to inspire, not to predict.
