Human Understanding — Mental Health Support & Resources
Understanding starts with care. The Human Understanding Project explores mental health, emotions, relationships, and our shared human experience. If you are looking for support for yourself or someone else, these independent services can help.
If you need support now
United States: Call or text 988 to reach the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. Support is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week for emotional distress, mental health concerns, and suicidal crises. You do not need to be suicidal to reach out.
Prefer to type online? Visit 988Lifeline.org for chat and information.
Immediate danger or a medical emergency? Call 911 in the United States or your local emergency number.
For ongoing support
Explore FindTreatment.gov, the U.S. government's confidential resource for locating mental health and substance use treatment services. You can also reach out to a healthcare professional or someone you trust.
Supporting someone else
Listening without judgment, asking what support would be helpful, and encouraging connection to appropriate care are meaningful starting points. You do not need to have every answer. When someone is in immediate danger, contact emergency services.
