For a psychiatric emergency, call 911.
The mobile crisis response services can help you.
During a mental health crisis, the individual in question is overwhelmed. Although they need immediate support, they do not always need to go to hospital to deal with:
- Suicidal thoughts;
- Psychotic thoughts;
- Intense anxiety;
- Depression.
