"No help"

About: Hertfordshire Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust

Tried calling the crisis line several times suffering a mental health crisis. No-one answers. It just rings and rings. Very disappointing when it takes a lot of courage to call for help and then unable to be heard. I will not be trying again.
