Crisis Resource List

If you or someone you know is currently in danger or in crisis, please consider reaching out to someone who might be able to help.

This page contains a list of text, online chat, videophone, TTY, and phone hotlines, including ones specific to youth, the LGBTQ+ community, trans people, and the Deaf community. I can’t personally promise that any of these sources will definitely help (let alone fix anything), but talking to someone might make things suck at least a little less, and could help you process what you’re going through.

Feel free to bookmark this page and share the link, or add it to your email signature (that’s where the information on this page used to be until I realized it was way too long). You can either share this shortened link (https://goo.gl/ZSVUp8) or you can share the link to the page directly, which is https://autistichoya.net/resources/crisis-resource-list/ .
