Help is available. You just have to ask.
Talking about your depression or addiction isn’t easy, but it’s the first step in getting the support you need. You don’t have to make a big announcement. You don’t have to post it for everyone to see. Just tell one.
Talking to one trusted person about how you’re feeling can be a huge relief. It can remind you that you’re not alone. And it can give you hope. One conversation won’t make everything better—but it’s a start. And from there, it will be easier to keep the conversation going and find professional resources.
JustTellOne.org was developed in collaboration with mental and behavioral health agencies across all eight counties in Western New York. Learn more about our mission.
