Talk it through with the Embertide assistant.

Tap the launcher in the lower-right corner of any Embertide page to open the assistant. It’s there to help with the smaller questions — how Embertide works, how to start a check-in, what the daily loop looks like — without turning any of the four lines above into a “just-in-case” call.

Anonymous by default — if you’re not signed in, the assistant reads the same public explainers it would for anyone browsing the site.

If this is a medical emergency, call 911.

For a peer in immediate danger — overdose, unresponsive, threat of harm — 911 is the right first call. The four lines above are for emotional crisis, not for emergencies that need a paramedic.
