Good to know<br />
The NHS website has a <strong>depression</strong> selfassessment<br />
tool, which you might find useful:<br />
nhs.uk/Tools/Pages/<strong>depression</strong>.aspx<br />
Remember, you don’t have to have physical<br />
symptoms in order to speak to your GP<br />
about your health.<br />
If you’re having thoughts of suicide or<br />
harming yourself, you should seek help<br />
immediately. See your GP or call NHS 111,<br />
or call Samaritans (116 123).<br />
People don’t always want to<br />
ask for help if it’s not about<br />
something practical, but mental<br />
health is very important.<br />
