Life Help Community Mental Health Center

A reminder from our Life Help Community Mental Health Center family to you and yours:

Many of you continue to navigate difficult circumstances associated with Winter Storm Fern, and others in our communities begin to return to the normalcy of their everyday routines. We want to remind you that healing from an experience such as the one we collectively and individually navigated may take time.

It’s normal if you feel more tired or not quite yourself. You may feel angry, anxious, or irritable, especially if you are still experiencing the full impact of the storm . Even if your power is on or restored and debris is minimal or cleaned up, you may find yourself feeling easily distracted.

You may have difficulty sleeping, or maybe you are eating more or less or drinking more alcohol than usual. Perhaps you have used other substances to cope.

Pay attention to all of these emotions and behaviors, and talk to someone you trust.

None of these are reasons to feel shame or guilt. They can happen because we’ve been through stress, trauma, or tragedy, or they can be due to depression or another mental health condition, all of which have effective treatments.

We especially want you to pay attention to and call if you have any thoughts about su***de or wishing you were not here.

Our 24/7 Emergency Hotline is 1-866-453-6216.

You can make a regular appointment at one of our county outpatient offices by calling their numbers, all pinned at the top of the page. If you call an office in an area that is closed, use the hotline number in a mental health emergency.

You can always call or text 988 or chat at 988helpline.org 24/7

Bolivar, Humphreys, sunflower, Sharkey counties, we are opening up our website to you for help from MS Baptist Disaster Relief. If you have any limbs, trees down, or a roof that needs tarping they are coming in and helping move these to the roads. This is all FREE OF CHARGE. David talked to all of your county EMA directors and we thought it would be easiest for the disaster organization to have all of the people who need help on a centralized list for them. They will be working to get here in the next couple of days and get teams to achieve as much as possible. Remember these services are free so they will cover as much as possible with what they have. Huge thanks to Mark Rowlan who is the one heading it up and speaking on all of y’all’s behalf for getting it done. Please fill this form out ASAP if you need help.

Glen Allen, your warming shelter is operational! Get there if you need it

01/30/2026

Check on your loved ones and neighbors in Carroll County and anywhere someone may not have heat or ability to communicate.

Please call your local law enforcement department, sheriff and/or police departments, if you know of anyone trapped at home for any reason with no heat. The cold weather this weekend for our area will be dangerous for anyone who does not have adequate heat. See our page for a list of warming shelters and check your local community pages for updated emergency information.
