Something like that kids help phone thing but for adults. I’m specifically looking for a website I saw posted somewhere weeks ago, I don’t remember the name, it was a free website where you could speak to someone - I don’t believe it was necessarily professionals. Apologies if the info I have is inadequate and thanks in advance.
For folks in the UK if you’re in crisis contact the Samaritans https://www.samaritans.org/ call 116 123. It’s free and 24/7 and fully confidential. They’re helped me out in the past, don’t hesitate to call.

The suicide prevention line isn’t only for suicides, they also help people with crises and just managing with life in general. 1 800 273 8255.
And I just looked this one up but it sounds cool, if you’re having any kind of crisis, there’s a crisis text line and you can text “HOME” to 741741 to text with a crisis counselor.
Actually, here are all the free crisis numbers, looks like some are tailored and some more general:

Which one of these are international? I speak English but live in Vietnam for example, yet I’d love to be able to have access to something like this.

There’s a Facebook group with links to people in Hanoi.

There are also resources for other cities.
