Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, experiencing emotional distress, facing a substance use challenge, worried about someone you love, or simply need someone to talk to, free and confidential support is available 24/7.
Calls from Maine are answered by the Maine Crisis Line, helping Mainers access support close to home. Often, individuals are connected to local providers like Sweetser, Maine’s largest provider of mobile crisis services.
Since its launch in July 2022, the 988 Lifeline has received more than 26 million calls, texts, and online chats, each one representing someone who chose to reach out.
