We often think that only mental illnesses impact our mental wellbeing, but that’s not the case. Physical ailments — or even the threat of them — can increase feelings of worry, stress, and anxiety. That’s why we offer urgent mental health care to anyone who needs it in the face of a disease.

If you or someone you know is experiencing mental distress because of a physical or mental condition or worry about one, call us. At Hollywood Addiction Center Emergency Mental Health Response (EMHR), our team is trained in helping people navigate disease and illness. We staff our call center to be ready to help you navigate feelings of panic, worry, depression, and more.

If the COVID-19 pandemic taught our team anything, it’s that the threat of a virus is enough to have a measurable, negative impact on peoples’ mental wellness. We know how scary it can be to face life-threatening conditions like that virus, HIV, cancer, and others.

In fact, we specifically train our call center responders to help people navigate the mental duress that can arise in the face of serious health conditions. We can help people navigate panic attacks, work healthily away from suicidal thoughts, and more. Our goal is to provide the mental health support individuals need to make sure a physical threat doesn’t compromise their mental wellness.
