PWI is not an emergency service. Our email, forms and booking system are not monitored continuously. If you need urgent help, please use the services below.
If you or someone else may be in immediate danger, cannot stay safe, has seriously harmed themselves or may harm another person, call 112 or go to the nearest emergency department.
112 is free and available throughout the European Union.
Call 113 or chat anonymously with 113 Suicide Prevention. Support is confidential and available day and night.
The 113 telephone line can only be reached from within the Netherlands. The online chat is also available when you are outside the country.
Contact your general practitioner (huisarts) immediately. Outside office hours, call your local out-of-hours GP service (huisartsen-spoedpost). If necessary, the GP can contact the local Crisis Intervention Team.
If you already receive mental health treatment, contact your treating professional or use the emergency number they provided.
If you are in immediate danger within the EU, call 112. Outside the EU, call your local emergency number or go to the nearest emergency department.
If someone’s life may be in danger, call 112. If it is safe for you, stay with the person while you contact help. Help them call their GP, local emergency service or crisis helpline. You may also contact 113 if you are worried about someone else.
PWI cannot provide crisis intervention or guarantee an immediate response.
