Hotline Directory

[thebiballerina]

I'm bringing my hotline directory over to Dreamwidth! It is a project of my self-care reminder Tumblr blog, timelyreminder. So far I have personally assembled full lists for the U.S. and Canada, and a partial list for the U.K. I plan on adding more countries at some point, and I am looking for assistance with that endeavor, so please get in touch with me if you'd like to help. In addition, feel free to contact me if you have any suggestions to add or notice something out of date with the lists already posted.

You can also view the directory on Tumblr.

Other Directories

While I have personally assembled my own lists, they are not consistently updated and feature a limited set of countries. As such, I've also listed some more comprehensive directories of hotlines, helplines, and resources below. While I found the sites below through avenues I consider trustworthy, please note that I cannot guarantee the reliability of all these sites, much less the reliability of the individual organizations they list.

Other Hotline Directories:

• Find A Helpline: This directory has the the most comprehensive selection of topics, allowing users to filter by many topics, not just suicide or mental health crises.
• Wikipedia's list of suicide crisis lines
• Wikimedia's list of mental health helplines: Also see their Mental Health Resource Center for resources beyond helplines.
• Befrienders: Global Suicide Prevention. Also see their other helpline organizations page for other sites that can help find similar resources.
• OpenCounseling's list of suicide hotlines: I found this list of suicide hotlines helpful enough to mention, but I cannot speak to the reliability of the organization as a whole, or their mission as a directory for affordable counseling services. Keep in mind they are (as far as I can tell) not a tax-exempt non-profit organization, and they do work with sponsors/affiliates (affiliate policy).
