Thank you for sharing how you’re feeling. It sounds like the past few weeks have been incredibly difficult, and carrying all of that must feel overwhelming.
You said: “Hello is there any one that can help me” and “Everything is overwhelming, the last few weeks I didn’t want to be here, have dark thoughts.” That sounds really tough, and it makes complete sense that you’re finding things hard when so much is weighing on you.
The National Autistic Society does not currently operate a crisis or emergency service. If you’re finding it hard to cope or have thoughts of harming yourself, please seek help. If you feel you [or anyone else] is at risk of immediate harm, dial 999 or contact one of the mental health crisis lines listed on our Urgent Help Page:
You could call your GP and ask for an urgent appointment – they can help you get the right support.
If it’s not an emergency but you’re still struggling, speaking to a health professional can help. If your GP is closed, you can call 111 for NHS support. In England, Wales and Scotland, you can now choose option 2 to speak directly with mental health professionals: https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-services/urgent-and-emergency-care-services/when-to-use-111/.
Here are some other organisations that offer free, confidential support:
Samaritans – Call 116 123, 24/7
SANEline – 0300 304 7000 (4.30-10.30pm daily)
Shout – Text 85258, 24/7
Mind Infoline – 0300 123 3393 (Mon–Fri, 9am-6pm)
We really hope some of these options help, and we’re here if you want to talk more about what you’re going through.
