SOS cannot contact the person or send help for you.
You can reach out for them

If you saw it on SOS
If a post on SOS worries you, use Report on that post and choose Self-harm or suicide concern.
Reports are reviewed by people, not in real time. If someone may be in immediate danger, call 911 first.
