What is Crisis Text Line? Crisis Text Line is a free, 24/7 crisis support by text message.
How does it work? First, you’re in a crisis. Crisis doesn’t just mean thinking about ending your own life. It’s any painful emotion and anytime you need support. When someone is in crisis, they can text HOME to 741741. You’ll then text back and forth with a Crisis Counselor. You never have to share anything you don’t want to. The goal of any conversation is to get you to a calm, safe place. Sometimes that means providing you with a referral to further help, and sometimes it just means being there and listening.
Who are Crisis Counselors? They are trained volunteers who—with the support of full-time Crisis Text Line staff—use active listening, collaborative problem solving, and safety planning to help texters in their moment of crisis.
