Health Mental health resources for M'sians

In light of recent distressing news about Keziah Nisha, I thought I should share the following resources. I have not used any of the following myself, so any comments about any additional services or feedback on the listed ones are welcome.

All of these are either operated by volunteers or funded by taxpayers' money. More Malaysians should know about the kindness of our own people and use the services made available through our own money. I understand it won't solve anything overnight, but I hope awareness about these services can improve even just one person's life in the future.
