❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Are these mental health resources free?
Yes, most of the mental health support services listed here are free or provided by nonprofit mental health organisations. Some may offer paid services like therapy, but we focus on including free helplines, community support, and government-funded mental health resources by country.
Are you affiliated with the mental health organisations listed here?
No, we are not affiliated with any mental health organisations, helplines, or nonprofit services listed on this website. The information provided is a curated directory of publicly available mental health support resources, compiled to help people access help more easily. We do not represent, endorse, or receive funding from these services.
Are the helplines confidential?
Yes, all listed mental health helplines follow confidentiality policies. Your conversations are typically anonymous, and trained mental health professionals or volunteers handle them. These services are designed to provide safe and confidential emotional support, particularly during times of crisis.
Are these resources available 24/7?
Many of the mental health crisis helplines included in our country-specific directories operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Availability may vary depending on the organisation or region, so we recommend checking the resource details on each mental health support page by country.
Do I need insurance or payment to use these services?
In most cases, no insurance or payment is required to access the mental health helplines and crisis support services listed. Our global directory prioritises accessible mental health resources, many of which are available to anyone in need, regardless of income or insurance status.
Can I contact a resource from another country?
In general, mental health helplines and services are intended for residents of their own country. Some international helplines may accept calls from abroad, but availability is limited. For the most relevant support, please refer to the mental health services in your country or region.
Can I suggest a mental health organisation to add?
Absolutely! We’re continually expanding our directory of free mental health resources by country. If you know of a verified helpline, nonprofit, or community support organisation, please contact us at [email protected]. Your contribution helps others find life-saving support. However, please note that we will only include resources that are free of charge and operated by nonprofits or official public agencies, excluding private clinics and commercial services.
