When it isn’t an emergency
If anxiety or stress is affecting your sleep, work or relationships, talking to your doctor (GP) is a good first step. They can explain options such as talking therapies and help you find a licensed professional. Many employers also offer a free, confidential Employee Assistance Program.
If you want a moment to steady yourself first, two minutes of slow breathing can help — but please reach out as well.
