Support Map – Helping you to get help, when you need it
We all need help sometimes.
It can be difficult to cope when there’s so much changing around us. You might be worried about schools closing, friends or relatives getting ill or what'll happen in the future. Coronavirus is challenging! Also, life goes on, and sometimes so does its’ problems.
Who can help you?
Think of an adult you trust, who makes you feel safe. Starting the chat might feel hard at first. Here are some ways to ask them to help you:
â–ª I am feeling scared; can I talk to you about it?
â–ª Can I talk to you about something I am worried about?
â–ª Something has happened that should not have. Can you help me?
Tell them what has happened in as much detail as you are comfortable to, including how you are feeling. They should listen and help you. If you don’t feel better after you have spoken to them, and you still need help, don’t give up! Ask someone else.
Yes - it is good to talk to family and friends, but sometimes you might find it easier to talk to someone you don’t know; someone who will not judge you, and who will keep it confidential.
Help is here for you. If you need it, ask for it.

How I feel if someone I know has died Nelsons Journey If you are reading this because someone important in your life has died, then you’ll know how hard it is to cope with. Some people find it helpful to talk to someone from outside their family and friends about it, and possibly meet other people in a similarsituation. This is where Nelson’s Journey can help. You can talk to one of our bereavement support workers about how you’re feeling and about the person who died – sad, funny and everything in between. There’s no pressure, and we can book sessions when you would find them helpful. |
