Sometimes the stress and psychological symptoms we experience start to negatively affect various aspects of our lives, such as our daily functioning, personal relationships, and work. If you feel that you need immediate assistance for your mental health and are in crisis, you may call 9-8-8 (national suicide and crisis lifeline), 9-1-1 (local emergency hotline), or go to the nearest Emergency Department. If you recognize that your mental health is declining and would like to seek help but are not in crisis you may contact your local human resources department which may have an Employee Assistance Referral Program. You may also choose to seek psychiatric or psychological services by browsing www.psychologytoday.com to search for mental health providers in your local area.
