If your or someone else’s life is at risk right now

Call 999 or go to A&E now if:

• your or someone else’s life is at risk – for example, thoughts of attempting suicide, or you or they have seriously injured themselves or taken an overdose
• you do not feel you can keep yourself or someone else safe

A mental health emergency should be taken as seriously as a physical one. You will not be wasting anyone’s time.

• Call 999 for an ambulance
• Go straight to A&E, if you can

If you can’t do this by yourself, ask someone to help you.
