1800RESPECT is a national counselling service offering confidential support, any hour of the day or night, for anyone affected by these issues, whether directly or as a supporter standing beside them. This is a genuinely simple step that can make a real difference. This is worth keeping in mind on harder days especially.

Trained counsellors listen without judgement, help callers think through their options, and can point toward further support if and when that is wanted, entirely at the caller's own pace and comfort. This is one of the easiest ways to find a caring, listening ear. This is worth remembering, whatever is going on right now in life.

1800RESPECT can be reached any time, day or night, on 1800 737 732, completely free and confidential for anyone who calls, whatever the reason. You are never a bother for reaching out, whatever the hour happens to be. It is always worth reaching out, even just to talk something through. These services exist precisely for moments like this one.
