Mental Health Resources
Help and Resources in Our Community
Mental health is a very heavy topic. Below are serveral resources for finding help in our communities.
What To Do
if someone is displaying signs
- Take it SERIOUSLY!
- Ask the question, “Are you thinking about suicide?” This will show the person you are concerned about them, and will open communication, allowing the person to express their thoughts freely.
- Listen intently and persuade them to get help. If able, guide them to a local resource such as this webpage.
Warning Signs of Suicide
- Talking about wanting to die or kill oneself.
- Sudden change in behavior; happier or calmer.
- Suicide threats or previous suicide attempts.
- Talking about feeling hopeless or having no reason to live.
- Loss of interest in things one cares about.
- Talking about being trapped or in unbearable pain.
- Giving things away, such as prized possessions.
- Purchasing a gun or stockpiling pills.
- Talking about being a burden to others.
- Increasing the use of drugs or alcohol.
- Withdrawn or feeling isolated.
- Acting anxious or agitated; behaving recklessly.
- Sleeping too little or too much.
- Showing rage or talking about seeking revenge.
- Making arrangements; setting one’s affairs in order.
- Themes of death or depression in conversation, writing, reading, or art.
Things To Know
A suicidal person may not ask for help, but that doesn’t mean help isn’t wanted.
- People who take their lives don’t want to die – they want to stop hurting.
- Suicide prevention starts with recognizing the warning signs and taking them seriously.
- If you think a friend or family member is considering suicide, you might be afraid to bring up the subject, but talking openly about suicidal thoughts can save a life.
