If you notice any of the following symptoms of depression, there are 11 hotlines in Austria that provide support for people like you:

  • Things that used to bring you joy mean nothing to you now
  • Your mood has worsened in the recent weeks
  • You could feel slower in your movement, speech, and reactions than usual

  • Your appetite and eating habits have changed
  • You might be unable to sit still
  • You became irritable for no reason
