Montana is known for its natural beauty and wide-open spaces, but it also has the third-highest rate of suicide among American states. That figure is owed to a number of different factors, including the impact of social isolation and the cultural stigma against talking about depression. Anyone can be in crisis, and there’s no need to feel ashamed for seeking help. What matters is recognizing that you need it, then reaching out to one of the resources available in Montana.
The Mental Health Hotline and other Montana-based helplines are part of a wide network of support for people who are struggling. The resources below are free to contact and available to Montana residents, and each one can help you sort through your circumstances and figure out what comes next.
