Emergency Helplines

We want you to know, that a lot of us here, us Warriors, have been in similar situations. Trust that you will also emerge from this. Know that your brain is not functioning optimally right now and is fixated on the worst thoughts, however THIS IS REVERSIBLE. Do NOT believe that you aren't worth living or that your life is beyond redemption.

Warriors Connect being a PEER SUPPORT COMMUNITY is not equipped to provide support in crisis situations. We are here to listen and empathise, but we are NOT a replacement for medical care

If you (or who you care for)  require immediate assistance / are actively suicidal or contemplating self-harm, please reach out to local emergency services / medical professional at your nearest hospital:
