How to Get Help During a Mental or Emotional Breakdown

Answered 19 September 2026 at 9:34 am PKT

This page explains what to do when a serious mental or emotional breakdown feels unbearable, including immediate safety steps and crisis support in Pakistan. It also offers a compassionate way to begin healing and moving on, whether you are struggling yourself or supporting someone else.

This can help me healing and moveon from very serious mental and heatbreakdown

Yes—Depression.pk can support your healing and help you move on from serious heartbreak and mental distress, but it may take time. Moving on does not mean forgetting; it means the pain slowly stops controlling your whole day.

You do not have to handle this alone. Start with the free self-test, then try the tools and worksheets when you feel ready. If you cannot sleep, eat, work, or feel safe, use Find a professional for extra support.

For tonight, do one small thing: sit with someone you trust, drink water, and avoid making any big decisions. If you might hurt yourself or cannot stay safe, go to the nearest hospital emergency department with someone you trust now.

Tell me what happened and what feels hardest right now—sadness, anxiety, anger, or sleeplessness—and I’ll help you take the next step.
