The line is open — no sign-in, no waiting
Call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — free, confidential, and answered by a real person 24 hours a day, every day, anywhere in the U.S.
No app, no account, no queue. Hang up whenever you want — and call back whenever you need.
Every bar is someone who already answered. This line never flatlines.
If there is immediate physical danger
Do not wait on this page.
Call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. Magnet is not built to respond in real time, and this page is not monitored — your physical safety comes first.
If talking out loud feels like too much
Crisis Text Line is free, confidential, and staffed around the clock. Text the word HOME to 741741 — and a trained counselor reads and replies, whatever the hour.
While you are here
Nothing to decide, fix, or explain first. Follow the circle for a few slow rounds — in, hold, out, rest — then choose whatever feels possible.

Plain boundaries
We would rather say our limits out loud than have you discover them when it matters.
We are not a crisis service
This page and Magnet's other resources are not monitored in real time. We cannot receive emergency messages, dispatch help, or provide immediate clinical support.
Crisis lines are independent
The 988 Lifeline and Crisis Text Line connect you directly to trained crisis responders. They operate entirely outside our platform, and we do not receive any data from your interactions with them.
Our doors stay open gently
Whenever things feel steadier, you are welcome to explore our orientation and support nodes. There are no streaks to maintain, no explanations required, and no pressure to disclose more than you want.
Come back today, next month, or after a long gap. Magnet starts from wherever you actually are — no streaks to break, nothing to explain.
