Reach out to a trusted friend, family member, or support person
Use grounding strategies (slow breathing, temperature change, naming what you see around you)
Schedule a session or follow up with your care provider when possible
If you are outside of Toronto or Canada, local emergency services or crisis lines can be found by contacting your nearest hospital or searching for regional crisis supports.
You deserve care, support, and understanding especially during difficult moments. If you need help, reaching out is the first step.
