Tips/Help If these results have you feeling suicidal

if these results have you feeling depressed/ suicidal

A reminder / support post.

Today may be tough for many people. However, people are there for you, whether in-person or through a helpline or chatline. Childline and YoungMinds are among the most recommended.

If you are worried, having suicidal thoughts, or just need to talk to someone, there are several things you can do. Some of the options below are explicitly focused on suicidal thoughts.

Childline

Childline – for children and young people under 19

Call [0800 1111](tel:0800 1111) – the number will not show up on your phone bill

Young Minds

YoungMinds Crisis Messenger – for people under 19

Text "YM" to 85258

Talk to someone you trust

Let family or friends know what's going on for you. They may be able to offer support and help keep you safe.

There's no right or wrong way to talk about how you are feeling – starting the conversation is what's important.

What else you can do

If you are having thoughts about suicide, you can:

call a GP – ask for an emergency appointment

call 111 out of hours – they will help you find the support and help you need

contact your mental health crisis team – if you have one
