ASKING FOR HELP
When you contact 988, you don’t have to share your name or where you’re calling from? Even if you’re not sure what to say, you could start with something simple like “Hi,” “I’m not feeling great today,” or “Today didn’t do it for me.”

988 counselors are available to listen without judgment, support you, and make it easier to ask for help and plan next steps.

MYTH: 988 IS ONLY FOR EMERGENCIES
Did you know you don’t have to be in a crisis to contact 988?

It’s a myth that 988 is only for emergencies. You can reach out if you or someone you care about is feeling anxious, stressed, stuck, or having a rough day. If something’s bothering you, that’s a good reason to talk. There’s never any shame in reaching out.

988 counselors are available for all kinds of support — text, call, or chat 24/7.
