Struggling with worry, anxiety or fear? Contact a hotline in Finland for free support

Many people experience anxiety at some point in their lives. Even though it may be different for each person, you aren't alone in feeling anxious. If you're struggling with anxiety or worry, or think you might be having a panic attack, there are 6 helplines in Finland who can understand how you're feeling. The following are just some examples of anxiety symptoms:

  • Scary thoughts that feel like they came out of nowhere
  • Feeling extremely nervous or overwhelmed
  • Unable to switch your brain off
  • Feeling like you're in danger
  • Trembling, sweating, or feeling clammy
  • Feeling an urge to escape difficult situations
  • Overthinking social situations or conversations
  • Increased heart rate

These thoughts and feelings are normal for someone experiencing anxiety. Even at a mild level, they can have an impact on the way you cope with day-to-day life. For some, these feelings are so intense that you may feel like you are dying or completely losing control.

Anxiety can be complicated and difficult to cope with. The good news is there are people in Finland who understand and can help you learn to manage it.

For free and confidential support with anxiety, consider contacting a hotline in Finland today.
