How do I know if I'm experiencing a crisis?

A crisis can vary by individual. When in doubt, ask for help.

A crisis might involve:

• Suicidal thoughts, intent, plan, and/or other risks of harm to yourself.
• Homicidal thoughts, intent, plan, and/or other risks of harm to others.
• Recent traumatic experience (e.g., natural disaster, sexual or physical assault)
• Recent death of someone close to you.
• Seeing or hearing things that others do not see or hear.
• Feeling unsafe, a sense of impending doom, or that someone/something wants to hurt you.
• Currently living without basic needs being met (i.e., without access to food, shelter, clothing).
• Unable to perform daily tasks, such as not being able to eat or sleep for several days.
• Experiencing uncontrollable panic and unable to calm down.

What to expect when speaking with a crisis provider:

• Questions to better understand your situation and to assess your safety.
• Support in regulating your emotions and utilizing coping strategies.
• Help in making a plan to address your concerns.
• Connections to other appropriate services within the Counseling Center and/or referrals to on- and off-campus resources as needed.
