Are you looking for help with recovery from the impact of trauma?
Traumatic events are more common than once thought, and many of us will be exposed to events that have the potential to cause distress and disrupt our lives.
We know from listening to people who have experienced trauma that many people are resilient and that connections with people who are safe and supportive are key to recovery from the impact of traumatic events.
If you are currently struggling with the impact of a traumatic event or events then please make contact with a trusted member of your community, such as your G.P.
If you are in imminent danger please call 999
We have also listed below some national support organisations that can help (although this list is not comprehensive):
NHS 24
111
The 111 service provides urgent care triage if you think you need A&E but its not life-threatening, and advice when your GP, pharmacy or dental practice is closed.
If there is a danger to life or serious injury, dial 999 or go straight to A&E.
Do you feel trapped, or have problems that seem unsolvable? Are you thinking about suicide? Hear from people who’ve been there, and come out the other side.
If you feel scared of your partner or if you are worried about someone you know, get in touch with Scotland’s 24 hour Domestic Abuse and Forced Marriage Helpline on 0800 027 1234 or visit sdafmh.org.uk.
