If you’re in crisis, help is available right now

If you or someone you care about is struggling with suicidal thoughts, you are not alone.

Find A Helpline is a global directory that connects people to free and confidential support:

  • Find verified helplines in over 150 countries
  • Connect by phone, text, online chat, or WhatsApp
  • Search by topics such as suicide, depression, or anxiety
  • Access specialised services for youth, LGBTQ+, veterans, and more

IASP is not a crisis centre and does not provide direct support. As the global lead in suicide prevention, we are committed to helping people in crisis reach the support they need. That is why we partner with ThroughLine, the creators of Find A Helpline, to make this resource available to you.
