    Calmly talking about how you feel with a pal, who doesn’t make you angry can help you get a different perspective.

    If it’s still getting you down, don’t hesitate to talk to your GP or call NHS 111.

    Always talk to someone about how you’re feeling, someone you trust or a helpline, such as Samaritans on 08457 90 90 90, for confidential, non-judgmental emotional support. Or ChildLine 0800 1111 to get help and advice about a wide range of issues, talk to a counsellor online, send ChildLine an email or post on their message boards.
