Identifying a Mental Health Crisis

A mental health crisis looks different from person to person and is defined by the person experiencing it. Make it a point to know when and where to reach out for help whether for yourself or someone you care about.

Here are some common indicators that someone may be experiencing a mental health crisis:

• A change in managing your daily living activities
• Significant changes in mood (example: increased agitation or aggression, anxiety, depressed mood)
• Abusive behavior to self or others
• Isolation
• Paranoia
• Experiencing hearing voices, hallucinations or delusions
• Thoughts or actions of harming others
• Talking about death, dying or suicide
• Reckless or self-destructive behavior

If you or a loved one are experiencing a mental health crisis, please reach out for help.
