Shout is the only free, confidential, 24/7 text messaging support service for anyone in the UK struggling to cope. We take around 2,000 conversations every day with people feeling anxious, stressed, depressed or suicidal and in need of urgent support.
Ottilie recently ran the Cambridge Half Marathon for us and says:
"Whether you are worried, anxious or even lonely, the ability to send a text and access help in that way is reassuring. Running the half marathon showed me my own strength and running it for a charity made the whole experience more special."
When Emily contacted Shout for help, she had recently been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and felt isolated, unsure of who she could talk to.
She was living in busy student halls, where anyone could overhear a conversation, and so the discrete nature of Shout’s text message mental health service was key to her feeling able to reach out for support.
"Texting Shout was definitely a turning point for me. I began to accept my illness and realise it didn't have to hold me back. I felt able to have hope for my future again."
