​

Try to discuss the potential consequences of their behavior. Approach this conversation as peer-to-peer.​

​

Set clear limits of safety as to how the individual is permitted to behave. 

WHO can help

​

 

 

Seek counseling or mental health treatment.

​

  • Private therapist

  • School counselor

  • Call a local or national hotline 

  • Reach out to a social worker

  • Contact another licensed mental health worker 

​

Medical or Emergency Care

A clinic or emergency healthcare provider is able to evaluate and determine the appropriate level of care. The patient will go through a medical screening process so medical providers can determine the best treatment based on the patient’s needs. This may include referral to a mental health professional or hospitalization.
