WHAT TO DO
Keep it clear. Keep it practical.
- Sort your transport and your basic next-day needs before the event ends.
- Give yourself a realistic recovery window instead of trying to do everything at once.
- Reach out to someone you trust if the day left you feeling unsettled or low.
- Use local health or support services when concerns do not ease or feel serious.
WHEN TO GET HELP
Ask for support when the moment needs more.
Seek urgent support if someone is in immediate danger, cannot be woken, has difficulty breathing, has chest pain, or you are worried their condition is serious.
- Immediate danger
- Difficulty waking or breathing
