I need help right now

If you are experiencing suicidal thoughts or feel like you can't keep yourself safe, it's important to reach out for help. Take a deep breath and try one of the following:

• Tell someone you trust how you are feeling 
• Go to a safe place with a friend or family member 
• Contact your doctor or named health professional (they will know how best to support you) 
• Try contacting a 24/7 helpline (such as the Samaritans on 116 123)
• If you're in immediate danger, call 999 (this is the quickest way to get help)
