The holiday season may be festive for many, but it can bring loneliness and despair for others. TherapyRoute.com, South Africa's most trusted route to finding psychologists, psychiatrists, therapy, and counselling near you, is raising awareness of a vital lifeline – helplines and suicide hotlines throughout South Africa and worldwide.

These resources are open to everyone, 24/7, and in some cases, toll-free. They offer a compassionate ear and support to those struggling with suicidal thoughts and feelings.

Why the Focus on the Holidays?

During the holiday season, feelings of loneliness and sadness can intensify, and suicidal thoughts may be on the rise. TherapyRoute.com aims to shed light on these critical services and provide hope to those in need.

A Unified Effort for Mental Health:

It's important to note that these hotlines are not TherapyRoute's own but a coalition of lines run by different organizations globally. TherapyRoute.com maintains this comprehensive list as a free public service, connecting individuals with the needed help.

Get Involved:

TherapyRoute.com calls upon the general public and mental health awareness activists to join the mission of spreading awareness.
