Safety, Support & Helpful Resources
Crisis lines, mental health resources, and safety organizations worldwide
If you or someone else is in immediate danger — call emergency services first
No helpline or platform can respond as fast as emergency services in a life-threatening situation. Call 911 (US), 999 (UK), 112 (EU), or your local emergency number first. Then use the resources below for ongoing support.
At Parsafy, we are committed to the safety and wellbeing of our community. In collaboration with leading safety experts and nonprofit organizations, we provide the following resources for anyone who may be facing a difficult moment — whether that's a mental health crisis, online harassment, exploitation, or another challenge.
When users on Parsafy search for topics related to mental health, self-harm, suicide, depression, anxiety, stress, grief, or bullying, we proactively surface localized resources from this page. These resources are available to anyone, regardless of whether they are a Parsafy user.
If you see someone on Parsafy who appears to be in crisis, please report it immediately using the in-app report button or our Reporting Guide. Our Trust & Safety team prioritizes these reports.
