When to Use the Helplines

Reach out to a helpline if you:

  • Feel overwhelmed, anxious, or unable to cope

  • Are having thoughts of self-harm or suicide

  • Are experiencing a mental health crisis

  • Need someone to talk to and don’t know where else to turn

  • Are concerned about a friend or loved one and need guidance
