How do I know if I am in a crisis?

Recognising if you are in a crisis is essential for your well-being, and certain thoughts and feelings can indicate the need for immediate help.
If you find yourself repeatedly thinking phrases such as “I want to kill myself,” “I want to die,” “How do i kill myself,”or “I don’t want to be alive anymore,” these are significant warning signs that you may be in a crisis.
It’s crucial to take these thoughts seriously and not dismiss them.
Other signs of a crisis can include overwhelming feelings of hopelessness, isolation, or an inability to cope with daily life.
If you are actively researching or considering methods on how to end your life, it’s a clear indication that urgent support is needed. In such situations, reaching out to friends, family, or a mental health professional is crucial.
Remember, seeking help is a sign of strength, and there are resources available to provide the support and care you need during challenging times.
