Whether you’re looking for yourself, supporting someone else or ready to learn, begin with an established organization and a clear place to turn.

Support in the United States
The 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline provides 24/7 support for people in the United States. You can reach out for yourself or because you’re concerned about someone else.
If there is immediate physical danger or a medical emergency, call 911 in the U.S. Outside the U.S., use your local emergency number or find a local support service. Thrive Together does not provide crisis response.
Different needs. Different starting points.
You do not need to have everything figured out before looking for support. Explore contact options, read what a service offers and choose the way you feel able to begin.
If you are concerned about another person, an established support service can be a starting point for you, too. You do not have to solve the situation by yourself.
People’s needs and timelines differ. Look for specialist bereavement information and support, with space to decide what feels helpful to you.
