Take action:
Some of the signs that you may need help include: being more emotional, i.e. more down or much happier (almost elated) than usual; more anxious or tense than normal; disturbed sleep patterns – need to sleep more or inability to fall or stay asleep; eating more or less than usual; abusing substances, such as alcohol or drugs; physical problems, e.g. heart palpitations, unusual sweating or trembling which are not the result of a physical problem; difficulty concentrating or remembering; friends or relatives have expressed their concern that there is something wrong; drop in school or work performance.
