Resources

I’ve compiled a list of resources that I think may be helpful for anyone seeking help for mental health issues. I will keep adding to this if and when I come across more helpful avenues; however, if you know of some resources that aren’t over here, don’t hesitate to reach out to me, and I’ll be sure to add them here!

Help is just a call away. If you are in danger or need help, please visit this link which maintains a repository of suicide prevention helplines from across the world.
