Note: It can be difficult or overwhelming to begin to get help while you are struggling. If you are struggling to find the help you need, ask a trusted friend, family member, or a member of BCM staff to help you make the calls and appointments. Often, practices will allow someone else to advocate for you with permission given over email.
