Understanding when more support may be needed
Emotional strain can build gradually and may not always look like crisis.
You may want to seek additional support if you notice:
Feeling overwhelmed or emotionally exhausted most days
Ongoing anxiety, low mood, or distress
Difficulty coping with daily responsibilities
Withdrawing from people, work, or routines
Thoughts that feel frightening or hard to manage
Seeking support early can make a difference.

Urgent help and crisis support: What to do if there is immediate risk or danger
1. Getting help for yourself
If you are concerned about your mental wellbeing, you may consider:
Speaking with a primary healthcare provider or general practitioner
Exploring mental health or wellbeing services in your country
Reaching out to trusted organisations that offer professional support
If you are already receiving mental health care and your needs feel different, contacting your existing provider can be a helpful step.
Within BloomWell, members can also:
Join specific peer led wellbeing circles
Share experiences in moderated community spaces
Access preventive support alongside professional care
BloomWell complements but does not replace other forms of support. We provide preventative space for you before crisis mood

If you are concerned about a friend, family member, or colleague:
Listen without judgement or pressure
Take what they say seriously
Avoid trying to fix or solve everything
Encourage them to seek appropriate professional help
Offer practical support such as helping find services or attending appointments
Being present and supportive can matter more than having the right words.
