Can I ring BBlue to talk my way thru a panic attack?

Is it OK to ring the Beyond Blue helpline to talk to a counsellor when in the middle of a panic attack? There is no one else I can ring when in this position as it would be pretty scary for an untrained friend, family etc to hear me during one!

Would I be wasting BB's phone time if I ring them? Is there a time limit I can speak for?

I have my phone off the hook today checking each hour to see if any messages, then taking it off again. I can't think straight. I have so much to do. I am shaking and beginning to lose it.

Dear Moon~

I'm so pleased you gave them a ring, also that that may have helped you through it.

Take care of yourself Moon
