In a Crisis

Here are some suggestions:

• If you need immediate help call 999 and ask for the police or ambulance service.
• Talk to someone. Two heads are better than one. If you hide how you feel, then someone who cares about you can’t help you.
• The Samaritans provide 24-hour confidential emotional support. It is also free to call them and their number won’t appear on your telephone bill: 116 123.
• You can also call NHS 111 for 24-hour health advice and information on 111. Calls are free from landlines and mobile phones.
• Sane Charity provide crisis support between 4.00pm and 10.00pm 365 days a year on 0300 304 7000.
• If you receive support from local mental health services, contact them using the number they have provided. Tell them you are in crisis.
• Go to your local A&E and ask to be seen by the duty psychiatrist. Explain how you feel and ask them to give you some help.
