Free mental health support in London

A busy city can still feel lonely. Whether you’re juggling a commute, study, work or caring for someone, you deserve a place to say how you’re really doing.

My mental health offers free online peer support for people in London and across the UK. There’s a room just for London, and the topic rooms are shared UK-wide. We are not a local clinic or an emergency service.

A conversation that meets you where you are

Choose the London room, or pick a topic that fits. Sign in or create a free account, then join a room to read and share messages with other members. Peer support is not professional treatment.

London

Support beyond the chat

For professional mental health support in London, speak to your GP or use the NHS directory to find talking therapies. Check each service’s eligibility and referral information.

Small steps between conversations

A quiet pause, a short walk if it’s comfortable for you, or a message to someone you trust can be a gentle starting point. Our advice and journal offer space to reflect, without replacing care.

You’re welcome, wherever you live

You don’t need to live in London to join the London room — anyone in the UK is welcome. The topic rooms bring members from both cities and beyond together. For questions about the community, get in touch.
