Mental Health Resources
We believe self-care can relieve the symptoms of mental health problems and ease the road to recovery.
Self-care is essential, but it isn’t always easy.
But we also know that self-care is a practice, not a cure.
That’s why we always donate part of our profits to Mind - Borough of Richmond upon the Thames - that share our mission of ending the stigma surrounding mental health.
By providing educational resources, financial aid, diagnosis and emotional support to people living with mental health problems, these organisations are paving the way to a kinder world where no one has to suffer in silence.
If you need help during a mental health crisis or emergency, NHS urgent mental health helplines provide:
- 24 hour advice and support for you, your child, your parent or someone you care for
- help to speak to a mental health professional
- an assessment to help decide on the best course of care
