Before telling a midwife or a doctor, you should call an alcohol and drug helpline. The helpline can help you make a decision about whether you should tell your midwife or doctor that you’ve been using an illegal drug. You can also call the helpline anonymously, meaning that you don’t need to tell them your name.
To contact the helpline, call 0800 787 797, or free text 8681. They are open 24/7. There are also:
Youth services (0800 787 984, or text 8681)
Kaupapa Māori services (call 0800 787 798, or text 8681)
Pasifika services (call 0800 787 799, or text 8681)
