Is it normal for crisis hotlines to not answer the damn phone?

I am in an emotional upheaval - i have an appointment to meet with a therapist in a week but some days it is almost like i can't wait and i feel desperate. I called three different hot lines for support this morning and NO ONE answered. Good thing my mind is occupied by this - so what can a person do when no one answers.

    They don't answer? Wtf. I've never called one but that seems like the kind of thing they should always have someone available to do. I'd be pissed to if I called and no one answered.
