If your life is at risk right now
If you feel like you might attempt suicide, or may have seriously harmed yourself, you need urgent medical help. Please:
Call 999 for an ambulance
Go straight to A&E, if you can
Call your local crisis team - if you don't already have their number, you can find an urgent mental health helpline on the NHS website
If you can't do this by yourself, ask someone to help you.
Mental health emergencies are serious. You're not wasting anyone's time.
