Suicidal Thought

If you are experiencing suicidal thoughts, please know that you are not alone and that there is help available. Suicidal thoughts can be overwhelming and it’s important to reach out to someone for support.

If you are in immediate danger, please call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.

In America, you can also call or text the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 800-273-TALK (8255) to speak with a trained crisis counselor. This service is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You can also dial 988, nationwide.

If you are not in immediate danger, it may be helpful to reach out to a trusted friend or family member, a mental health professional, or a support group. You can also use coping mechanisms, such as taking deep breaths, going for a walk, or engaging in activities that bring you joy, to help manage your thoughts and emotions.

Remember that seeking help is a sign of strength and that there are people who care about you and are willing to support you.
