BC-Wide Help

A person who might have psychosis – who is withdrawn, paranoid/suspicious, starts to have bizarre beliefs or behaviour or otherwise seems to be suddenly ‘off’ mentally should be examined by a medical professional to figure out what is going on.

Here are some good places to get help:

1) Go to your family doctor or mental health clinic and tell them what is going on.

2) Call HealthLinkBC with your concerns by dialing 811 (they are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week) and can help link you or your family member with resources.

Consult our list of local resources below (in progress) to find out what is available in your area.
