Mercy Malaysia Launches Mental Health Helpline For Sabahans

Mercy Malaysia has launched a dedicated psychosocial support helpline for Sabahans. The helpline aims to provide a listening ear for anyone who may be struggling with negative feelings such as anxiety, depression or stress, during the Covid-19 pandemic. We speak with Mercy Malaysia about their helpline and the mental health situation in Sabah in these trying times.

The helpline will run from 8am to 5pm every day and can be reached at 088 338088.
