Is there a place people can go to away from home for mental help issues
Dear Relative,
Huge kudos to you for reaching out. I understand that sometimes it is really hard to ask about resources for mental health help. It sounds like right now finding a counselor to talk through the reasons why you may want to get away, would be a good start.
You can contact your:
- School Counselor
- Tribal Clinic – Mental Health Services
- Mental Health America has a zip code locator to help you find clinics near you. They also have a Crisis hotline you can call: 1-800-273-TALK.
A few months ago I had a similar question that came up. You can see the answer to that question at WeRNative.
If you want to talk to someone immediately, please text START to 741741.
Thanks for writing in. I’m sending you my thoughts and prayers.
Take care,
Auntie Manda
