LIFELINE has launched a new service designed to reach help-seekers who aren't ready to talk to someone else about their situation or simply prefer to manage things themselves first.
Available at Lifeline's site, the new support toolkit has practical information in plain language, as well as quality curated tools, apps, techniques, and services to help individuals take the next step in their wellbeing journey.
The support toolkit is also designed to help those supporting someone else in need.
It provides tools and resources to help people understand and cater to the needs of someone in distress while making sure they administer effective self-care at the same time.
Lifeline Australia CEO Colin Seery commented that the support toolkit will enable the organisation to support people who wouldn't otherwise engage with mental health and crisis support.
"Our new support toolkit means help-seekers at all stages of their journey can come to Lifeline to access help on their terms.
"It helps people to make sense of their experience and take active steps to manage their wellbeing," Seery explained.
"We know that a lot of people looking for help might not yet be comfortable involving another person in their situation.
"The toolkit makes it easy for anyone who feels they are ready to take positive steps forward but doesn't know where to start."
