A calm and supportive place to begin when looking for mental health help around the world. This page is designed as a starting point for crisis links, general support, youth and identity-aware pathways, and region-based mental health resources.
You do not need to search everything at once. Start with the section that feels most relevant to you, then come back later if you need to explore more.
If you or someone else may be in immediate danger, call your local emergency number now. If you need a crisis line or urgent support pathway, use the crisis page first before browsing the wider directory.
Start with the pathway that best fits what you need. This page can grow over time, but these sections will give you a strong starting structure now.
Use this if you need immediate emotional support, suicide prevention help, urgent safety planning, or a crisis line in your country or region.
Open crisis supportExplore broader mental health pathways including counselling, wellbeing organisations, helplines, therapy support, and community-based services.
Back to support hubFind support pathways for young people, students, and under-25s, including school stress, identity, emotional wellbeing, and youth-focused help.
Youth support pathwaysHelpful if you are supporting a child, teen, partner, friend, or adult and want guidance, resources, or support for yourself as a caregiver too.
Support someone elseBrowse pathways that feel safer and more relevant for LGBTQIA+ people, culturally diverse communities, hidden disabilities, and identity-specific support needs.
Inclusive pathwaysCommunity support can include moderated peer groups, warm lines, online communities, and spaces that reduce isolation while you work out next steps.
Browse more supportThese are starter categories so the page feels international from the beginning. You can add more links and subpages later without rebuilding the layout.
For now, each region card can act as a guide section, a holding area for future links, or a pathway into fuller regional directories as you build them out.
