In a move that reinforces our commitment to providing accessible mental health care, at LagosMiND we are launching an additional mental health helpline number (070-0000-6463). The new line was introduced in response to the growing need for mental health services. Whether you are seeking emotional support, having a crisis, need help from a family or friend, or just need a compassionate ear, LagosMiND is here for you 24/7.
Our additional helpline number complements the existing line (090-9000-6463), which has witnessed a continuous increase in call volume since its inception. By introducing this second line, we are taking proactive steps at LagosMiND to ensure that no one in Lagos and Nigeria at large is left without access to mental health care.
Your Mental Health is a Priority
We are pleased to inform you, our dear reader, that both lines are staffed by trained mental health professionals who can provide immediate emotional support, counselling, and referrals to appropriate services or mental health facilities if necessary.
Whether a person is coping with anxiety, depression, trauma, or other psychological concerns, the LagosMiND helplines are designed to be a safe and welcoming space for open dialogue. The professionals on the other end are trained not only to listen but to provide meaningful, compassionate guidance tailored to each caller’s specific needs.
Why the Helpline Matters
Mental health challenges can affect anyone, regardless of age, background, or status, and many people often suffer in silence due to fear or shame. At LagosMiND we are working tirelessly to change this narrative by creating an accessible, stigma-free environment where seeking help is encouraged and celebrated. Our message is clear, “You don’t have to face it alone. Help is just a phone call away.
The introduction of this additional helpline is not just about providing a service; it’s about sending a powerful message across Lagos and Nigeria that mental health matters.
Our Lifeline is for the Community
Both helplines are available around the clock, ensuring that no matter what time of day, help is accessible. Whether you’re dealing with everyday stress or more complex emotional challenges, LagosMiND helplines offer a bridge to healing and support. With free access to professional advice and support, residents can take a proactive step toward maintaining their mental well-being.
Today, as a team, we urge residents across Nigeria to save the helpline numbers and share them widely within their communities. Remember, by raising awareness, we can ensure that these resources are available to those who might not yet realize they need them.
