When an individual's mental and emotional health is in danger, it is said to be experiencing a mental health crisis. It can include a wide range of circumstances, including when someone expresses suicide ideas, self-harms, exhibits severe panic or anxiety, shows indications of psychosis, or cannot handle intense emotions. A person's behavior that endangers them or others can also indicate a mental health crisis. Prompt intervention and assistance are vital to guarantee the person's safety and well-being in these situations.

It's crucial to address the matter with understanding and care if you have concerns about someone's mental health. You can take various actions, depending on how severe the problem is. Call emergency services or a crisis hotline if there is an urgent danger of harm, such as suicidal or self-harm thoughts. You can advise the individual to seek assistance from a mental health expert, such as a counselor or psychiatrist if the situation is less urgent but still troubling. Reach out to the person's family, friends, or a mental health support group to voice your concerns and get advice on the best course of action if you think they're in danger but aren't ready to assist themselves. While seeking the necessary assistance, put the person's safety and privacy first.

Social services can help people with their mental health problems. That much is certain. Social services may provide a variety of supports, such as linking people to mental health resources, informing them about available services, assisting with access to therapy or counseling, providing support for families and caregivers, and helping people navigate the mental health care system. Additionally, they can offer advice on housing, job, financial support, and other practical issues that may have an effect on someone's mental health. Social services can be a helpful resource, but it's crucial to remember that in order to offer complete care, they may collaborate with other mental health organizations and specialists.
