At #anx/pan, we simply don't have the resources to adequately help people that feel suicidal.  We encourage those that feel this way to contact their doctor or use one of these hotlines.

These numbers have been provided by others and I can't guarantee that they are working or haven't been changed.  Please let me know if you have new information.
