    Hi @ellie2000

    It sounds like you have reached out to a helpline, well done for this! I would suggest trying to explain the reason you have called the helpline when the person picks up the phone. Do you feel comfortable sharing with us the reason for calling a helpline? I think you have done the right thing by calling for help <3
