Need urgent help?
Last Updated September 1st, 2025.
Uplift is a peer support community, not a crisis service. That means while peers can listen and support, we can’t step in during an emergency. If you’re feeling like you might harm yourself or you don’t feel in control, peer support isn’t the right option right now.
If your life is in danger, please call emergency services immediately or go to the nearest hospital. If you can’t do this on your own, ask someone you trust to help you get there.
If you’re feeling hopeless, overwhelmed, or struggling to see a way forward, please know you don’t have to go through it alone. Support is out there, and help is available 24/7. 💚🌍🤝
