If you, or someone you know, are experiencing a mental health crisis or feeling distressed, it is important to get help or advice as soon as possible. Go to Mental Health Crisis (Aneurin Bevan University Health Board – nhs.wales) for more information on who to contact or where to go.

If you or someone you love are in need of urgent help, it's an emergency.

If you are unable to keep yourself safe, it’s an emergency. Mental health emergencies are serious. You are not wasting anyone’s time.
