Crisis Support
If you’re feeling overwhelmed or unsafe,
here’s how to get immediate help
8Wise® is not a crisis service and cannot provide urgent or emergency support
If you are in immediate danger, feel unable to keep yourself safe, or are worried about harming yourself or someone else, please seek help right away.
Your safety matters, and reaching out for immediate support is the right step.
If you are in the United Kingdom
If you need urgent help:
• Contact emergency services
• Reach out to local NHS urgent mental health support
• Speak to a trusted friend, family member, or neighbour
• Contact your GP or healthcare provider for urgent advice
If you are unsure where to start, contacting emergency services is the quickest way to access immediate help.
If you are outside the UK
Crisis support varies by country. You may be able to access:
• Local emergency services
• National crisis helplines
• Local mental health crisis teams
• Hospital emergency departments
• Trusted friends, family members, or community support
• Your doctor or healthcare provider
If you’re outside the UK, there may be national or local crisis services in your area that can offer immediate support. If you’re unsure where to turn, contacting your local emergency services is the quickest way to get guidance.
If you are supporting someone else
If you are worried about someone’s safety:
• Stay with them if you can
• Encourage them to contact emergency services or local crisis support
• Reach out to someone close to them if appropriate
• Seek urgent help on their behalf if they are unable to do so
You do not need to manage the situation alone.
