Support Options Beyond a Single Phone Call
Launch library · evergreen read
A phone call is often the first step, but it does not have to be the only one, since these services can help point toward further, ongoing support too. This is worth remembering whenever things feel too heavy to carry alone. It exists so that nobody has to face a hard moment truly alone.
Counsellors can suggest next steps that suit your particular situation, whether that involves counselling, medical care, or simply another conversation further down the track. This is worth sharing with anyone else who might need it too. This is one of the easiest ways to find a caring, listening ear. It remains available whether it is a first call or a hundredth one.
1800RESPECT can help map out what comes next, any hour of the day, on 1800 737 732, at whatever pace feels right for you. Nobody expects you to have all the answers before you call. You deserve the same care and patience you offer to others. Support is there for exactly as long as you happen to need it.
