Mental Health Support And COVID-19

NAMI Minnesota is very concerned about the mental health of the people we serve and the

greater community. This is a very trying time. If you have questions about COVID-19, call the

Department of Health at 651-201-3920 or 1-800-657-3903 from 7 am – 7 pm Monday through

Friday.

If you are:

• Unsure about attending therapy sessions outside the home, especially people who are at higher risk, ask your health care provider about telemedicine or online mental health services.
• Worried about access to prescribed medications, you can ask your health care provider about getting 90-day supplies vs. a 60 or 30-day supply. If this is not possible, we encourage you to refill your medications as soon as they are allowed.
• Worried about your mental health:
• Call the warm line at 651-288-0400 or text “Support” to 85511;
• Call the crisis team at **CRISIS or click here for the county numbers https://mn.gov/dhs/people-we-serve/adults/health-care/mental-health/resources/crisis-contacts.jsp
• Call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255)
