This page lists trusted crisis lines, charities and services by country and by topic. Start with the emergency number for where you are.
Free to call. You don't need a diagnosis, an appointment, or the right words ready.
{b.body}
Loops is a daily coaching app for people with ADHD. This page is a directory, not a treatment or emergency service.
Each country below follows the same order: emergency numbers first, then crisis and talk-now lines, then everyday support grouped by topic. If you only read the bold lines, you'll still get to the right number.
If you're supporting someone else, the same order works. Start at the top of their country's section, not the topic that feels most relevant.
If you need help right now, it's here.
{b.title}
One layout, every country.

{a}
These services are run by the people best placed to help: national health systems, major charities and government bodies. Loops sits alongside them, for the ordinary days in between.
If you'd like daily support with routines and consistency once things feel steadier,
you can try Loops free.
