155 or 112: immediate danger to life or health in the Czech Republic. 158: Czech police for imminent violence.[1]
116 111: Linka bezpečí, the Czech children’s helpline for children and students up to 26, free and round the clock by telephone.[2]
116 123: Linka první psychické pomoci, the Czech mental health crisis helpline for adults and those close to them, free and round the clock by telephone.[3]
‘I need help. I am at the address… What is happening is… I don’t know exactly what to do.’
If you fear you may hurt yourself, ask a safe person to stay with you. After dangerous ingestion of a substance, injury or other self-endangering action, do not wait for an AI assessment. Call emergency help.[4][5]
Cannot speak aloud? In such an emergency in the Czech Republic, you can text 112. State what, where, when, how many people need help and who is writing. Add that you cannot call, and watch for a reply.[6]
For non-emergency support in the Czech Republic, chat is available through linkabezpeci.cz/pomoc and linkapsychickepomoci.cz, at the times listed on these pages. Chat and email are not emergency services. A communication record may remain on the phone; if someone else monitors your device, consider a safe way to make contact.[2:1][3:1]
Having already spoken with AI is no reason to feel ashamed or postpone help.
