In an emergency
Please note, I do not offer any crisis services, and am unable to offer support or advice outside of scheduled sessions.
Mental health difficulties can lead to darker thoughts and questions about purpose, this is very normal. However, I am unable to support individuals experiencing active thoughts around suicide and self harm. This includes having a plan or an intent to act on these thoughts, or maybe having harmed yourself in some way already.
If you are experiencing thoughts around self-harm or suicide, you are not alone, you just need the right support at this time. There are specific services that can help, so please contact the following as a first step:
-
Your GP
-
NHS 111 (24 hours a day for non-emergency, telephone 111 and select option 2 for urgent mental health support)
-
SHOUT (24 hours a day text service, text 85258)
-
The Samaritans (24 hours a day, telephone 116 123)
-
National Suicide Prevention Helpline (6pm-midnight, telephone 0800 587 0800)
