5 warning signs of risk for suicide

  1. Hopelessness

    The person feels that nothing will ever improve. They may feel that they do not have control and that everything is a mess.

  2. Confusion

    The person is often confused and irritated. This low frustration tolerance seeps into all areas of life.

  3. Breaking relations and associations

    The person disengages from their support system. They may not feel the energy to participate or may believe that anything will make a difference.

  4. Low energy level

    The person does little or nothing, spends their time daydreaming, and does not follow through on tasks.

  5. Lack of sleep or poor sleep patterns

    This can negatively impact their ability to effectively cope.
