Get help now

You don't have to get through this alone. These lines are free, confidential and open 24 hours a day.

In danger right now?

If you or someone else might get hurt, or someone has had a seizure or won't wake up:

Call 911

Thinking about suicide, or in emotional crisis?

The 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. Call or text, any time. Free and confidential.

Need help with drinking or drugs?

The SAMHSA National Helpline is free, confidential and open 24/7, in English and Spanish. They can help you find care near you.

Call 1-800-662-4357

Withdrawal can be dangerous

Safety first. If you drink heavily every day, stopping suddenly can be dangerous. Talk to a doctor before you quit.

Shaking, sweating, a racing heart, confusion, seeing or hearing things that aren't there, or a seizure after cutting back can be a medical emergency. Call 911 or go to the ER.

Call someone you trust

A friend, your sponsor, your pastor, someone from your meeting, a family member. You don't need the right words. "I'm not okay, can you talk?" is enough.

Steps & Scripture is not an emergency service. If you use the app, its crisis screen works offline and is never behind a paywall.
