Recovery Devon does not have a direct help or support line for people who are having experiences which may be difficult or distressing. We do, however, have a huge range of online resources on this blog.
Creating a WRAP (a personal action plan)
We do wish you all the best in your journey and we welcome any comments you may want to make.

You can contact your local GP directly.
The numbers for these are available from your local phone book.
Alternatively, Our Local Links posts have information on a wide range of local services.
National Support

Calling Samaritans is now free of charge from a landline or mobile. Their new number is 116 123.

The Samaritans service is available 24 hours a day for people who are experiencing feelings of distress or despair.
NHS Direct
Phone: 0845 46 47 (soon to be replaced by this free number: 111)
This is a 24-hour general health advice and information service.
Helping ourselves
We believe that ultimately we each have to make our own journey towards recovery and a better life, even though that may well involve support from others at different times.
We have many suggestions for ways we can help ourselves on that journey, in our
For Ourselves posts.
And we have a variety of suggestions for families, friends and supporters in our
As Supporters posts.
