How to Help Someone in Crisis

Follow these steps if someone you know is in crisis

1

Ask directly

Ask the person directly if they are thinking about suicide. Research shows this does not increase risk.

2

Listen without judgment

Allow them to express their feelings and listen with compassion and without judgment.

3

Keep them safe

Reduce access to lethal items or places. Ask if they have a plan and remove means if possible.

4

Stay present

Stay with the person (or make sure they're not alone) until professional help is connected.

5

Connect with resources

Help them connect with ongoing support like the 988 Lifeline or local crisis resources.
