You may never have expected that you would be affected and you may be at a loss. Keeping yourself safe and letting someone know how you’re coping are important first steps in getting through a suicide crisis.\n\n## Keeping yourself safe\n- Postpone any urge to end your life. You may find your mood changing if you wait for these feelings to lessen.\n- Remove any objects in your surroundings that could be used to harm yourself on impulse. Alternatively, move away from these items.\n- Stay around other people and let them know how you are coping.\n- Keep the contact numbers of hotlines and people you are close with on speed dial. Call them just to hear a voice.\n- Avoid drugs and alcohol. They intensify low moods and impair decision-making.\n- If you feel you may be at immediate risk of harming yourself, call 995 or approach the medical facilities nearest to you such as General Practitioner (GP), Polyclinic or Accident & Emergency Department (A\\&E).\n## Letting someone know\n- Approach an adult you trust and with whom you are close to. It may be a family member, friend, community leader, teacher, etc.\n- Tell them what you are thinking of, or at least how you are feeling. Let them know you are struggling and at a loss.\n- Be prepared for their reaction. They will want to help but may be startled or react emotionally. Let them know you want to work things out and you want their help or support.\n- Ask them to help you find additional support in person, online or on the phone.\n## How can we help?\nIf you are feeling suicidal, please reach out to us through the following support options:\n\n- Call our 24-hour Hotline at 1767\n- Message us via our 24-hour CareText via WhatsApp at 9151 1767\n## Things can change for the better\nMost importantly, seek support from mental health or counselling professionals if you feel suicidal or anticipate recurring suicidal thoughts.\n\nThey can work together with you in creating a long-term safety plan or finding ways to cope with difficult experiences, situations, or emotions.\n\n![](https:\/\/www.sos.org.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/service-calls.png)\n\n### Crisis Support\nSOS initiates follow up for high suicide risk individuals identified through our Hotline, CareText and official referrals.\n\n![](https:\/\/www.sos.org.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/service-calls.png)\n\n### Light in the Dark (LITD)\nA structured psycho-educational support group intended for individuals who struggle with suicidal thoughts and\/or have a history of suicide attempts.\n\n![](https:\/\/www.sos.org.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/service-calls.png)\n\n### Specialist Counselling\nCounselling is available for individuals going through a suicide crisis or who have just experienced a suicide loss.\n\nThis service is by appointment only.\n\n## I've Lost Someone to Suicide\nLosing a loved one to suicide can be a traumatic and devastating experience. You may feel like your world has fallen apart and you are left feeling empty, lost and confused.\n\n## How can we help?\nMany survivors find it helpful to talk about their grief. But sometimes, it can be hard to turn to family and friends.\n\nIt’s also important to remember that:\n\n- No one is ever prepared for the suicide of a loved one.\n- You are not alone in this.\n- Support is vital in the healing and recovery process.\n- At SOS, we provide information, emotional support, suicide bereavement counselling and helping resources to those bereaved by a suicide death.\n\nIf you or someone you know has been affected by the suicide death of a loved one, please reach out to us through the following support options:\n\n- Call our 24-hour Hotline at 1767\n- Message us via our 24-hour CareText via WhatsApp at 9151 1767\n## SOS services for suicide survivors\n- **Specialist Counselling**  \n   Suicide bereavement counselling is available for individuals who have just experienced a suicide loss.\n- **Local Outreach to Suicide Survivors (LOSS)**  \n   SOS provides programmes that consist of emotional support, counselling and support groups to those who have lost a loved one or someone they knew to suicide.\n- **Healing Bridge**  \n   A suicide bereavement support group for those who have lost a loved one or someone they knew to suicide.\n- **Healing Within**  \n   A 6-session support group for suicide survivors.

You may never have expected that you would be affected and you may be at a loss. Keeping yourself safe and letting someone know how you’re coping are important first steps in getting through a suicide crisis. ## Keeping yourself safe - Postpone any urge to end your life. You may find your mood changing if you wait for these feelings to lessen. - Remove any objects in your surroundings that could be used to harm yourself on impulse. Alternatively, move away from these items. - Stay around other people and let them know how you are coping. - Keep the contact numbers of hotlines and people you are close with on speed dial. Call them just to hear a voice. - Avoid drugs and alcohol. They intensify low moods and impair decision-making. - If you feel you may be at immediate risk of harming yourself, call 995 or approach the medical facilities nearest to you such as General Practitioner (GP), Polyclinic or Accident & Emergency Department (A\&E). ## Letting someone know - Approach an adult you trust and with whom you are close to. It may be a family member, friend, community leader, teacher, etc. - Tell them what you are thinking of, or at least how you are feeling. Let them know you are struggling and at a loss. - Be prepared for their reaction. They will want to help but may be startled or react emotionally. Let them know you want to work things out and you want their help or support. - Ask them to help you find additional support in person, online or on the phone. ## How can we help? If you are feeling suicidal, please reach out to us through the following support options: - Call our 24-hour Hotline at 1767 - Message us via our 24-hour CareText via WhatsApp at 9151 1767 ## Things can change for the better Most importantly, seek support from mental health or counselling professionals if you feel suicidal or anticipate recurring suicidal thoughts. They can work together with you in creating a long-term safety plan or finding ways to cope with difficult experiences, situations, or emotions. ![](https://www.sos.org.sg/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/service-calls.png) ### Crisis Support SOS initiates follow up for high suicide risk individuals identified through our Hotline, CareText and official referrals. ![](https://www.sos.org.sg/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/service-calls.png) ### Light in the Dark (LITD) A structured psycho-educational support group intended for individuals who struggle with suicidal thoughts and/or have a history of suicide attempts.
