Activ8 Life App is a habit tracker — not a medical or therapeutic tool. If stress, low mood, negative thoughts, or any habit feels bigger than you can manage alone, reaching out for professional help is one of the strongest things you can do.
You don't have to wait. The services below are free, confidential, and available right now — please reach out.

Your GP is often the best first step for ongoing support. They can refer you to talking therapies (NHS Talking Therapies), addiction services, or a mental health specialist — and you can self-refer to NHS Talking Therapies in most areas without seeing your GP first. Search nhs.uk/talk to find your local service.
The contacts above are for the UK. If you're outside the UK, please contact your local emergency services or equivalent mental health helpline. Activ8 Life App does not provide medical advice — always seek a qualified professional for concerns about your health.
