I've used Samaritans a few times and I wanted to share their campaign and also contact details just in case you want to contact them yourself whether you're in a crisis or not.
The first time I contacted Samaritans, I didn't know what to expect. I used their email first of all after I was given a Samaritans bookmark by my counsellor at college. I was then given their text line number via email as it took along time for them to reply to emails as they were only answered during working hours. I then found their phone number to call them for free, all three ways saved my life so many times. I felt I was listened to and understood on so many levels, I can't thank them enough.
Enough about my experiences, here are the numbers:
Call: 116 123 (free from all phones UK and ROI only)
Text: 07725909090
Email: jo@samaritans.org (UK)
jo@samaritans.ie (ROI)
Alternatively, I'm a head admin and admin for many groups, if you feel you just need to talk to someone who has been in your shoes, definitely join this group.
If you have your own experiences with talking with someone from Samaritans, please share your stories below.
