You deserve real support, right now

My AI Family Friend is an AI. It can listen, but it is not a crisis service, a therapist, or a substitute for a human who can truly be with you. If you are in danger or thinking about harming yourself, please reach a real person now — these services are free, confidential, and used to hearing exactly what you're carrying.

Also worth reaching for: one trusted person — a friend, a family member, a neighbor. You don't need the right words. “I'm having a hard time and I didn't want to be alone with it” is enough.
