In these cases, in-person medical intervention is the most appropriate form of help.
If you feel you are experiencing any of these difficulties, or if you feel that you are a danger to yourself or to others, we would urge you to seek help at the nearest hospital or emergency room where you can connect with a psychiatrist, social worker, counsellor or therapist in person.
