Need to talk to someone NOW?

Sometimes we all feel overwhelmed and talking to someone else can really help.  If you are feeling suicidal, experiencing a crisis or in need of immediate help, contact these services immediately.
 
For serious illness or injury that is critical and requires urgent attention, call triple zero (000) for an ambulance or go to the emergency department or your local hospital.

The numbers listed below are available 24/7 and are free or the cost of a local call (some charges may apply to mobile users).
