This section explains how the mental health, drug and alcohol and suicide prevention systems work to help you to understand what support is available and how to access it.
If someone’s life is in danger, call 000.
If you are feeling suicidal, help is available.
There are many crisis helplines and online supports that you can access at any time of day or night. You can speak to an experienced and qualified counsellor on the phone or through webchat, or connect with others through online forums.
If you or someone you know needs help to manage the use of alcohol and/or other drugs, there are a range of supports available. These supports are often referred to as AOD services.
Grief can affect anyone at any time. You may experience grief if a person or a pet dies, a relationship ends, or if you experience a miscarriage. Whatever may have triggered your grief, there is support available to help you manage during this time.
