Asking for help: A guide for adults

cover page Asking for help: A guide for adults

At different points in our lives, it’s normal and inevitable to feel worried, stressed or down. If you are struggling, it’s always ok to ask for support.

Remember, showing that you’re struggling does not make you weak and it’s an act of bravery to reach out for help. It’s well worth doing – talking to someone can help ensure you get the support you need to overcome the challenges you’re facing.

This guide offers actionable advice on how to take the first steps and gives information about organisations that can offer support.
