A Practical Note
These resources exist for moments when coping feels out of reach. You do not need to be in "the worst moment of your life" to use them. If something feels urgent, overwhelming, or unsafe, trust that signal and reach out.
If faith or spirituality is part of your life, it can be one source of grounding alongside professional and community support.
