Seek professional help

If you are particularly concerned about your mental health, we like to remind the people of Sheffield about the self-referral service called Sheffield Talking Therapies. The website has self-help advice but also a self-referral option. Alternatively, you can call them on 0114 2264380. There is also advice for what to do if you are in a crisis.

You can also speak to your GP about your mental health – medication and/or counselling may help but you doctor will know the best route for you.
