Text Someone Tool
When you need help, finding words can be the hardest part. Use one of these texts as-is or edit it.
I am not safe alone right now. Can you stay with me or help me get help?
I am having a really hard mental health moment. Can you call me or come sit with me?
I do not need advice right now. I need someone to stay connected with me for a little while.
Can you help me contact 988, my doctor, or emergency support?
Still Here Faith offers Christian encouragement and resource navigation, not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. If you are in immediate danger, call or text 988. Always consult a licensed professional for mental health care.
