While "mental health crisis" and "medical health crisis" both describe urgent situations requiring professional intervention; they differ in their primary symptoms and the specialized response systems designed to handle them.

A mental health crisis (sometimes called a behavioral health crisis) occurs when a person’s emotional or psychological state deteriorates to the point where they are at risk of harming themselves or others or are unable to manage daily survival needs. A medical health crisis (or physical health emergency) involves acute physical injury or illness that poses an immediate threat to life or long-term health.

Call or text 988 to connect with trained mental health counselors or call 911 for emergency medical services.

In 2026, the global movement to "Stand Against Stigma" focuses on shifting the public perception of substance use disorder (SUD) from a moral failing to a chronic, treatable medical condition.

Modern medical science defines addiction as a chronic brain disorder that requires ongoing medical treatment, similar to diabetes or heart disease. Over 20 million Americans are living in recovery, proving that long-term health and stability are achievable with the right support. Approximately 1 in 10 people who need treatment do not seek it because they fear judgment and discrimination from their communities.

How to Take a Stand?
•Educate Yourself and others
•Use Person-Centered Language
•Speak Out Against Misconceptions
•Support Treatment Access
•Listen and Show Compassion

At FLBHC, our commitment is your wellbeing and safety, call us today at 954-734-2001 if you want to start your recovery journey.
