Texas was home to more than 3,000 fatal drug overdoses in 2018 alone. That’s over eight people daily. Furthermore, according to Mental Health America, last year Texas was second-to-last in a national ranking of states with access to mental health care. This comes as heavy news when you add the fact that nearly three-quarters of Texans suffering from any form of mental illness do not receive any care at all. We want to help. The following hotlines are available to all residents of Lone Star State, and the last two are available nationally. If you or someone you love needs help, please call whichever hotline is most suitable, and please call today.
