For myself

You already know it from the inside.

From the outside, everything appears to be under control: you're working, you're functioning. But the pressure is mounting, and you can't stop on your own. Today you'll speak with someone who has been through it themselves.

Do you recognise this?

It creeps in

What once seemed innocent has imperceptibly taken over. This looks different for everyone.

The glass of wine after workThat there were increasingly more of them.
The little pill to find peaceWithout it, sleeping is no longer possible.
The line at the pubThat's no longer just part of going out.
The pattern that takes precedenceGaming, gambling, or anything else that dictates your day.

Change begins with yourself.

Often you carry on until you absolutely can't anymore. But you don't have to lose everything before asking for help.

From the first phone call to recovery

No choice menu and no intake form. This is how it really works.

1

No obligation contact

You call or app and speak directly to an experienced peer supporter. This applies even if you're just having doubts, and also outside of office hours.

2

Bespoke intake

In a personal conversation, we'll map out together what's going on and what suits you. You'll immediately know where you stand financially. Usually within 1 to 2 days.

3

Personal journey

Guidance, an intervention or admission to a specialised clinic, often possible within 48 hours. Family is guided and aftercare is always part of the plan.

Real experiences

They went before you

★★★★★

"Very good service. Thanks in no small part to his good network, Gijs ensured that I was in Portugal within 48 hours at a very high-quality clinic. I am grateful to Gijs that, thanks to him, I am once again in control of my own life."

FAQ

What happens if I call?

You'll speak to someone with lived experience who knows how this step feels. We'll listen, ask a few questions, and think things through with you. Calling doesn't commit you to anything.

Does no one know I've been in touch?

Correct. We work with complete confidentiality and independence from insurers and the municipality. Nothing will be passed on to your GP or your records without your permission.

How much does it cost?

The costs depend on the route. In the initial free, no-obligation consultation, you'll find out exactly what to expect, with no surprises later on.
