When something is urgent
If you or someone else is in immediate danger, or you are thinking about harming yourself, contact your local emergency number or a crisis service in your country right now. Look up the current service for your specific country and region, since numbers and services differ by location.
This community cannot provide emergency help
Support After Infidelity offers peer support and general education. It has no ability to see a message the moment it is posted, dispatch help, or intervene in a live emergency. Please treat it as a place to return to once the immediate danger has passed.
