🆘 Safety resources
Help beyond Andromeda — for when something spills into real life.
🚨 In immediate danger? Contact your local emergency number now.
In the United States that's 911. Andromeda cannot contact emergency services for you — please reach them directly. If you can't speak safely, many regions support texting your emergency number.
Crisis & mental health
- 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (United States) — call or text 988, 24/7, free and confidential. Online: 988lifeline.org
- Outside the US, search “crisis line” + your country, or find one via the International Association for Suicide Prevention (iasp.info/resources/Crisis_Centres).
Domestic & relationship abuse
- National Domestic Violence Hotline (United States) — 1-800-799-7233 (or text START to 88788), 24/7. Online: thehotline.org
- They can help with safety planning even if you're not ready to leave. Outside the US, search for your national domestic-violence helpline.
Online harassment, stalking & doxxing
A few things that genuinely help if you're being targeted online:
- Document, don't delete. Keep a record before blocking — Andromeda can build one for you (Safety Center → Export evidence).
- Tighten your circle. Go private, limit who can DM/tag you, and turn on Lockdown mode from your Safety Center.
- Don't engage. Block or restrict, then report. Feeding it is what attackers want.
- If your private info was posted, report it (it may be auto-limited already), ask the host to remove it, and consider the Cyber Civil Rights Initiative (cybercivilrights.org) for image-based or coordinated abuse.
- Tell someone you trust. Isolation is the goal of harassment — don't carry it alone.
