Get help now
Focus Lab is an app. When things are hard, please reach a real person. These are free and always open.
Call or talk to someone
Talk to a parent, a teacher or another adult you trust. You can also call, free, any time:
If you're in danger right now
Call 112, or go to the nearest adult and tell them. If you can, move somewhere safe.
If you're thinking about hurting yourself
Please tell someone today: a parent, a relative, a teacher or a friend's parent. Call Tele-MANAS on 14416: it's free, private and open all day and night, in many Indian languages. You matter.
If someone is hurting you
It's not your fault, and you deserve to be safe. Tell an adult you trust. If you're under 18, Childline 1098 can help, any time.
If things just feel heavy
Talk to someone you trust about how you've been feeling. A school counsellor or a doctor can help too. Feeling better often starts with saying it out loud.
