Information and support
When you’re living with a mental health problem, or supporting someone who is, access to the right information is vital.
-
Text "SHOUT" to 85258 to contact the Shout Crisis Text Line, or text "YM" if you're under 19
If you're under 19, you can also call 0800 1111 to talk to Childline.
The number will not appear on your phone bill.
These services will only share your information if they are very worried about you or think you are in immediate danger.
