Re: Psychological distress and help

Hello @nuguchuku,

Thank you so much for sharing this with us. It sounds like things are feeling really big in your body right now and I think allowing yourself to express how you're feeling fully is a wonderful way to regulate.

I wonder what support you are needing most right now? Do you have any safe people you can go to tonight?

It may also be helpful to start by calling your state's mental health triage line, which you can find here: https://www.safetyandquality.gov.au/supporting-your-health-care/supporting-your-mental-health 💛

Hi @nuguchuku 

I’m sorry to hear you’re struggling as much as you are right now. Do you have anyone (e.g. friend/psychologist/counsellor/psychiatrist) that you could check in with? It’s great that you can notice the warning signs quickly. Hopefully you’ll be able to catch it before it spirals out of control. Wishing you the best of luck!
