http://www.suicide.com - US based but has a variety of resource links
SIEC is an organization based in Calgary that has access to some of the
best resources in North America. The main website is www.suicideinfo.ca,
but the link below will take you directly to a support page:

Befrienders Worldwide is another great org This is the main website:
http://www.befrienders.org/index.asp.
They also have an email service - send an email to the address,
jo@samaritans.org. They usually respond within 24 hours, and it is fully
confidential, all done via email. But the main Befrienders website has a
lot of other great helpline info.
http://www.getconnected.org.uk/
You won't be able to phone because it is based in London (but so worth
it...they are the leading European authorities on mental illness in young
adults...). However, they offer help via email, and live webchat every
night from 7:00 - 10:00 pm. It used to be UK time, and I think it still
is...which would make it 3:00pm - 6:00 pm our time.
http://www.selfharm.org.uk/default.aspa or
www.selfharm.org.uk/hekp/helpingyourself/default.aspa
Another great UK website.

A group called S.A.F.E. Alternatives, based out of Illinois.They are linked

beneficial. They have a good basis of research.

They are wonderfully thorough and informative.
www.cmha.ca, Canadian Mental Health Association
Follow the link to Support Center, and then to Discussion Groups. It

results.
