If you are in crisis.........

You are not alone. You are important. And it is OK to ask for help.
You might be feeling very low or anxious, or just not yourself, and there doesn't seem to be any reason why. Or, for example, you may have lost someone close to you, had a relationship break down, or have money problems. You may be struggling and finding it hard to cope.

Talking to someone can make all the difference.

Below are some helplines and support services that can help.    

If your life or someone else's is in immediate danger, call 999.
