After a crash, people often find the most important things for recovery are time, understanding, and support from family and friends. If you are experiencing ongoing or distressing symptoms which are interfering with your usual life, it’s best to seek help from a professional.
You can organise a health check with your General Practitioner (GP) who can give helpful advice on next steps and refer you to local support options including Counsellors and Psychologists.
A trained professional can help you process your experiences and support you in a safe and non-judgmental way. Even if the event occurred some time ago, it is never too late to seek help.
