People often wonder whether a single phone call to MIELI Crisis Helpline can truly help someone in crisis. What can be achieved in one call, and how much relief can it offer the caller?
The stress experienced by Finns can be seen in the increased number of calls to the Crisis Helpline. This summer, the helpline's resources were enhanced, and the number of calls answered was higher than ever before. The Crisis Helpline will open Ukrainian- and Russian-language helplines in September.
The number of calls to the Crisis Helpline keeps growing. The increase is 40% when compared to last year. April 2022 holds the record of the most calls in a month. Now young women in particular are calling the helpline.
MIELI Mental Health Finland provides crisis assistance and support in order to prevent mental health problems and suicides. The phone conversation can help you to look into the future and see beyond your current situation in life.
