How To Help Someone In A
MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS!
In our fast-paced world filled with daily stress, hidden struggles, and ever increasing mental health challenges, many of us want to help but aren’t sure how to do it. This book offers a gentle, but practical guide for recognizing when someone is hurting and knowing how to respond with care and confidence.
Performing Artist and Author Joseph James draws from his own life-challenging experiences, which in 2024, included a traumatic brain injury, an 8mm cerebral aneurysm, seizures, fractured back, spiritual battles, and recovery. He shares his personal and professional insights, as well as insight from years of conversing with medical and mental health professionals. He explores the whole person through the lens of body, soul, and spirit, and outlines four practical levels of response—from offering everyday kindness to stepping into serious crisis situations.
Filled with encouraging real-life stories from thousands of conversations and some colorful photos from his travels around the USA, this book covers topics like trauma, medication awareness, spiritual encouragement, and breaking the silence around mental health. It also includes some life saving resources.
