If you feel like you can’t cope and are at breaking point, you can get same-day or next-day help by calling NHS 111 and selecting the mental health option. This will connect you to the 24/7 mental health crisis line. Alternatively, you should contact your GP urgently in the first instance.
If you feel at immediate risk of danger, self-harm or suicide or are worried about someone who is, please call 999 immediately.
