If you are being abused by someone who has access to your computer, know that he or she can access information that tells them what Websites you've been visiting and whom you've been emailing. Here are instructions on how to prevent that.

In the UK (hat tip to Eliza)

In an emergency it is possible to visit your local Accident and Emergency department and ask to see the duty psychiatrist. NHS Direct (0845 46 47) can also provide you with medical advice at any time of the day or night. Samaritans (08457 909090) provide 24 hour emotional support and Saneline (0845 767 8000) can provide information and crisis support. Saneline operates between 1pm to 11pm every day.

It is worth checking to see if the local Community Mental Health Team (CMHT) can provide a crisis support team contact.
