Resources & Support

The books we publish are companion reading — the voices of people who have walked a similar road. They are not a substitute for professional care, and they are not a crisis service.

If you need urgent help

If you or someone else may be in immediate danger, contact your local emergency services straight away. If you are in crisis or finding it hard to cope, please reach out to a qualified professional or someone you trust. You do not have to face it alone.

Speak with a professional

For diagnosis, treatment, and guidance specific to your situation, your doctor, a licensed mental-health professional, or a specialist in your condition is the right source of support. If you are unsure where to begin, your primary-care provider can point you toward the right care.

Resources in every book

Each volume closes with a curated list of organisations and resources relevant to its specific topic, chosen to point you toward credible, professional support.

Finding a helpline

Free and confidential helplines exist in most countries for mental health, specific illnesses, and caregivers. Look for the established national organisation for your condition or region, or ask your care team for a referral — they can connect you with trusted local services.

Whatever road you are on, we hope these books remind you that you are in good company.
