Crisis Text Line:
Text “HOME” to 741-741 (available 24/7)
You can message via Facebook Messenger as well: m.me/crisistextline
Crisis doesn’t just mean thinking about ending your own life.
How it works:
Text “HOME” or “HELLO” or “PA” or any other greeting, and a live, trained Crisis Counselor receives the text and responds quickly. Free & confidential. They will help you out of your moment of crisis and work with you to create a plan to feel safe and take the right next step. Crisis Text Line is not a replacement for long-term counseling, in-person therapy, or a trusted friend or Pastor. Crisis Text Line FAQ here.
