Mental Health Self Help Resources
You might just feel that you need a little bit of help rather than coming for counselling.
The following set of links are designed to direct you to useful websites and organisations that can provide help, often out of hours and if needed, 24x7.
However, if things have become overwhelming, if you are having thoughts of harming yourself, if you are unsure that you can keep yourself safe - please contact your GP, your local NHS mental health crisis service or call 111. You can also call the Samaritans on 116 123.
