Talk To Someone
You can talk to Samaritans at any time of the day or
night.
If you live outside of the UK and ROI, or wish to use a language
other than English, please visit www.befrienders.org
to find your nearest helpline.
Common reasons to call Samaritans are:
- Relationship and family problems
- Loss, including loss of a job, a friend or a family member
through bereavement
- Financial worries
- Job-related stress or overwork
- College or study related stress
- Body image issues
Volunteers offer support by responding to phone calls, emails and letters. Alternatively, you can
often drop in to a branch to have a face to face meeting.
"There's very few places you can go to in the
world where you can pick up a telephone and another human being, no
matter why they're doing it, will listen to you unconditionally. If
you want to pour out in a phonecall, they will listen for hours,
for as long as you need them to."
