Making it easy to get help
Are you ill at ease or do you experience symptoms of stress?
Even mild symptoms of failure to thrive may be the early signs of stress or other mental challenges that may develop into something more serious. Therefore, it is important that you get help quickly - regardless of whether you are experiencing mild or persistent symptoms. The typical signs of failure to thrive are having trouble sleeping, feeling uneasy, anxiety and an impaired memory. These are your body’s signals telling you that you are not OK.
Therefore, it is important that you call the Mental well-being hotline if you do not thrive or experience symptoms of stress. Here, you can get advice and guidance from a psychologist who will also assess whether there is a need for additional assistance.
Call the Mental well-being hotline at (+45) 71 12 50 00.
Are you in pain?
Pain in your back, a sore knee or a stiff neck can turn the day into a nightmare. Typically, such symptoms will not go away if you just keep working as before, so it is important to address all injuries and ailments before they get too serious.
If you are in pain, you need to call PFA’s Health Centre. Here you can get help and exchange ideas with a health professional who will advise you about how to treat your pain optimally. Even small issues can develop further and turn into a long period of unnecessary pain, so the quicker you call the sooner you can start on an effective treatment.
If your treatment requires a referral from a doctor, it can also be a good idea to contact your own doctor before calling PFA. However, you are also free to call PFA first and learn more about the optimal form of treatment.

Do you have children who are not thriving or who are ill or injured?
Children’s symptoms of not thriving may be expressed in many different ways - from the initial mild symptoms such as unease and nervousness to persistent symptoms such as anxiety, sleeplessness and sadness. This can often impact the entire family, and therefore PFA is ready to help you and your child with advice and guidance.
When children are facing difficulties over long periods of time and the symptoms persist, there may be a need for psychological counselling or some other form of treatment.
