Emotional Support
SANE offers emotional support and information to anyone affected by mental health problems through helpline (SANEline) and email (SANEmail) services and an online Support Forum where people share their feelings and experiences.
These services are led by SANE’s team of mental health professionals and delivered by a force of over 140 volunteers who undergo rigorous training and in many cases give hundreds of hours of their free time each year. SANE’s Caller Care programme provides call-back to give on-going support and help people alleviate a crisis phase or get through difficult circumstances.

Famous quotes containing the words emotional and/or support:
“The worst drugs are as bad as anybody’s told you.... It’s just a dumb trip, which I can’t condemn people if they get into it, because one gets into it for one’s own personal, social, emotional reasons. It’s something to be avoided if one can help it.”
—John Lennon (1940–1980)
“In the middle years of childhood, it is more important to keep alive and glowing the interest in finding out and to support this interest with skills and techniques related to the process of finding out than to specify any particular piece of subject matter as inviolate.”
—Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)
