Safety and crisis support

Your safety matters. This page explains what Mind Guard 365 can and cannot help with, and where to turn if you need urgent support. Please read it if you are going through a hard time.

If you are in immediate danger

If you or someone else is at immediate risk of harm, or you have seriously hurt yourself, this app is not the right tool. Contact emergency services straight away.

What Mind Guard 365 can help with

Mind Guard 365 is a self-help and education app. It can support your everyday wellbeing by helping you:

• Check in with how you are feeling and notice patterns over time
• Use breathing and grounding exercises to steady a difficult moment
• Follow short, guided wellbeing programmes and reflections
• Learn about looking after your mental wellbeing

What Mind Guard 365 cannot do

• It is not monitored by clinicians. No doctor, therapist or crisis worker sees what you enter or is alerted if you are struggling.
• It is not an emergency or crisis service. It cannot send help, respond in real time or contact anyone on your behalf.
• It is not therapy, diagnosis or treatment. It does not assess, diagnose, treat or monitor any health condition and does not replace professional care.

If you are feeling unsafe, having thoughts of suicide or self-harm, or feel you may not be able to keep yourself safe, please reach out to a person now.
