Help in A Crisis
There are many things that can make us feel low or hopeless and these feelings can come and go but it is important to take them seriously.
If you are having thoughts of suicide, are harming yourself or have thoughts about self-harm it is important to tell someone.
These thoughts and feelings can be complex, frightening, and confusing but you do not have to struggle alone.
Whilst The Retreat Clinics is not able to provide crisis services, if you feel unable to cope or keep yourself safe, please contact your GP immediately, or contact an organisation who specialises in crisis support. We have listed some organisations below who may be able to help you.
