They get helped in whichever way possible. I have not had any need of their services, so I can not answer this question properly.

They try talking to you. And asking questions. If you immediately need help they suggest you call 911 on yourself. Youll probably be admitted into a pysch ward.

Depending on the suicide hotline, your call may be routed to a central location or, as in the case of the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, your call may be answered by the center closest to you. When you call, you'll typically hear a message confirming the number you have reached and then on-hold music until someone can answer your call.

Like 7Cups, The suicide hotline exists to provide you with the best assistance they can. The Suicide Hotline has resources better suited to the needs of someone in imminent crisis and who is a danger to themselves but it is only there to help.

When you aren't in hold anymore there will be someone kind and caring asking about your situation and trying to understand what your going through. Then they will try to tell you to go to the nearest mental health center..
