Mental Health

Insomnia, low mood, anxiety and stress

What this board is about

This board covers mental health, including depression, anxiety and panic disorder, insomnia and stress. Many people hesitate to see a psychiatrist because they worry about their records and about being treated unfairly, but other hospitals and employers cannot look at your medical records as they please. Asking for help when things are hard is not weakness. It is the start of treatment.

If you are struggling right now

  • Suicide prevention helpline 109 (24 hours, call or text)
  • Mental health crisis counselling 1577-0199 (24 hours)
  • If you are having specific thoughts of hurting yourself, do not bear it alone. Call right now, or go to the nearest emergency room

If someone around you worries you, rather than "are you okay", try opening with "you have looked like you are going through a lot lately, and I am worried".
