Can I talk about self-harm or suicidal thoughts?

If you're thinking about suicide or hurting yourself, please call or text 988 now to reach the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (US, free, 24/7). If you're in immediate danger, call 911.

Sweet Listeners isn't a crisis service, and listeners aren't therapists or crisis counselors. You're welcome to talk about hard feelings and stressful times, but a listener can't keep you safe in a crisis. If a talker says they're in crisis, the listener will point them to 988 or 911.
