Managing Potentially Threatening Situations
www.cmha-bc.org March 2005
Be aware that not all unusual behavior is dangerous or violent. If behavior is threatening, however, take the threat seriously and protect yourself by removing yourself from the situation and calling for help, including calling 911 or a peace officer.
Avoid touching the person, and allow maximum personal space. Do not stand between the person and an exit, but make sure that you have access to a safe exit also. This reduces the perception of you as a threat.
![Page 12: A UC Irvine Community Approach to Managing Students’ Mental Health Issues Presenters: Jeanne E. Manese, Ph.D. Director, Counseling Center Vivien Chan,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649d805503460f94a64810/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Managing Potentially Threatening Situations www.cmha-bc.org March 2005
Speak slowly, calmly and quietly; do not respond to insults or aggressive talk but do respond to other questions with short answers so that the person can understand and does not feel ignored. Often persons in psychosis are experiencing auditory hallucinations (hearing voices) and cannot hear or deal with more than short, simple statements or questions.
It may be necessary to repeat yourself before the person can hear and understand you.
![Page 13: A UC Irvine Community Approach to Managing Students’ Mental Health Issues Presenters: Jeanne E. Manese, Ph.D. Director, Counseling Center Vivien Chan,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649d805503460f94a64810/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Managing Potentially Threatening Situations www.cmha-bc.org March 2005
Do not exhibit nervous or aggressive behavior such as crossing your arms, pointing at the person, standing with your hands on your hips, or making abrupt or quick movements. Again, this reduces any perception that you are a threat.
Explain what is happening – – not in terms of the person’s own experience, but what you or others are doing to help them. If the person is hearing voices, tell them that you cannot hear them but understand that they do. It’s okay to ask if they are hearing voices and what the voices are saying; this may help the person’s anxiety. Explain who you are and who others are who may arrive. Explain that you are all trying to help.
