Contact your GP
Contact your GP if you are feeling worse, mentally and/or physically, or if you feel you require medication, or want to change your medication. Ask for an urgent/emergency appointment if necessary.
Mental Health Crisis Line
You can also phone the Mental Health Crisis Line. This helpline is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week on 0800 028 8000.
