You Can Ask for Help
Stress from work, school, family, money, language, or isolation can become serious. You do not need to wait until it becomes impossible.
Where to Start
You can ask a hospital, local consultation desk, city office, school, company, or mental health support service.
Write Your Symptoms
Write sleep, appetite, mood, anxiety, work trouble, family situation, and when it started. Short notes help explain your condition.
Language Support
If Japanese is difficult, check multilingual consultation or ask a trusted person to help you contact support.
Emergency Risk
If you may hurt yourself or someone else, seek urgent help immediately through emergency services or nearby people.
