A Podcast About Mental Health
Get Help
So, you're not feeling too great. That's okay, we're here for you.
Let's first make sure you're safe. Have you already done something to hurt yourself? If so, take a deep breath and call:
911
No? That's good to hear. If you or someone you know is having thoughts of suicide, you can call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline. It's free, confidential, 24/7, and designed just for you.
1-800-273-TALK
Don't want to talk on the phone? We get it, it can be scary. You can chat online with a trained counselor anytime:
Lifeline Crisis Chat
IMAlive
Or if you're a teen, call, text, or email:
Teen Line
Not thinking of suicide, but still need support? Check out this list of phone lines offering peer support, designed to be there for you before you're in a crisis:

Or if you prefer to write out your thoughts:
