Find Help

Most of us go through life solving our day-to-day problems without needing help to cope with our feelings. But a severe illness, an accident or an emotional crisis can overwhelm us, at least temporarily, and suddenly we need help. In this section, you will find resources and tips on getting help when you need it most.

Are you in crisis?

If you or someone you know is in crisis and needs immediate assistance:

  • go to the nearest hospital or
  • call 911

Do you need medical advice?

Contact your General Practitioner for a referral to a qualified mental health care professional.

Looking for community support services?

For mental health services in your community, see:
