Mental Health Crisis Lifeline
A mental health crisis is a serious situation where someone’s mental or emotional state makes them a danger to themselves or others, or unable to take care of themselves. It can involve sudden worsening of symptoms, like mania or psychosis, or suicidal or homicidal thoughts. If you or someone you know is experiencing a mental health crisis, it’s important to get help immediately to ensure their safety and well-being.
