Samaritans is a registered charity aimed at providing emotional support to anyone in emotional distress, struggling to cope, or at risk of suicide throughout the United Kingdom and Ireland, often through their telephone helpline.
TELEPHONE
They offer a safe place for you to talk any time you like, in your own way – about whatever’s getting to you. We won't judge your or tell you what to do, we'll listen to you.
CALL THE SAMARITANS 24/7 ON 116123
EMAIL
Writing an email can be a calm and safe way to work through what's on your mind. Especially if it feels too upsetting to talk about on the phone. Samaritans volunteers answer each email that comes through to jo@samaritans.org
You don't have to be suicidal to get in touch – nearly half of the emails they receive are from people who are having a tough time, but not suicidal. Sometimes people worry they can't write well – no matter your spelling, punctuation or how you express yourself, the Samaritans are here. Average response time is 24 hours so call them if your need is urgent.
