Increased demand for services
Due to the recent airing of the Addicted Australia documentary on SBS we may be experiencing an increased demand for our services, this could mean it takes a little longer than usual to connect to an online counselling session.
If you want to speak to someone now you are likely to have a shorter wait using the national AOD helpline where you can also find the support you are seeking, we recommend you call 1800 250 015.
