get help

Don't go alone

Get help means to seek assistance, whether practical, emotional, or professional.

The phrase often appears as advice or a command, especially regarding mental health: If you're struggling, please get help.

It can also be dismissive or mocking, implying someone is disturbed: You need to get help.

In software, "Get Help" is a standard menu option for accessing user support.
