Support
My Black Dog is an online peer to peer chat service that supports people struggling with their mental health. All of our volunteers are people who have lived experiences of their own mental health battles and understand what you are going through.
When you don't know who to talk to, talk to someone who gets it.
When you don't know who to talk to, talk to someone who gets it.
We are volunteers. Participate in our free online mental health chat to talk to real people who have grappled with suicide, self harm, depression and paralysing mental illness.
We understand that coping with mental illness is HARD and not knowing who to talk you is terrible. You might be worried about what people will think of you, you might feel ashamed, you might feel that they won't understand. We do. Every single person that is a part of the My Black Dog Pack, from the volunteers to the ambassadors has felt this way before. We get it.
This site is for adults. If you are under 18 years of age, please visit Childline

We are an online mental health charity. We are not doctors or therapists, not counsellors or psychiatrists, we are people who understand; people who have ALL experienced mental health issues.
