You make the phone call and they talk to you about what you want to discuss. They are there if you need them, because they DO want to help. So, if you need them, use them. God bless.

When you call, you are usually connected to a trained individual or counselor who can talk with you or refer you to an agency or hospital for treatment. Someone who is trained to deal with a suicidal individual will talk with them about whatever problem they are going through in order to help them. Depending on the helpline, sometimes they will dispatch a team to assess and assist with hospitalization if it is needed. It depends on the States laws for psychiatric screening too.

They are there to help you. You might have a question, or just want to talk for a bit to help you calm down. They are trained professionals that are available to help you with any of your problems that you would like to discuss.

It's like counseling. They talk to the caller about what's going on, try to come up with other solutions, and possibly get that person in touch with other professionals or hotlines.

trained people are on the other end and they talk to you about how you're feeling and why and try to help you calm down and see that life is worth living by helping you to see the positive aspects of life.

the same way this forum does. speaking to someone about what you are going through helps you understand your true inner feelings as well as it offers you advice.
ya never know who is listening or who may be going through the same thing you are.

You call them and talk to them. I called once because my crazy ex kept telling me about how he wanted to kill himself and I wanted advice.
If you want to commit suicide, call them. If you need help, call them. You don't have to give your real name, they're there to talk to you and listen.
