Abstract
Purpose: Tension is generated for everyone concerned when psychological emergencies like severe sensorimotor excitement or suicidal behavior occur in places other than psychological facilities like regular clinics, emergency departments, or clinicians' private offices. These should always be managed right away since they could be fatal. As a tool for their quick as well as efficient care, including the key exhibiting symptoms, multiple diagnoses options, and therapeutic choices for the major categories of mental crises have been included in this paper so that the general population as well as the clinicians of all other specialties other than psychology specialists, can understand the common psychological emergencies and its proper treatment.
Objective: There is relatively little reliable data on the frequency of mental crises in routine as well as community practice, in accidents and emergencies in healthcare facilities, or with patients treated by urgent healthcare units. Given the realities of modern healthcare institutions and the public's general hostility to psychological issues of any kind, we shouldn't be surprised that the first therapy for psychological illnesses often doesn't really occur in specialized mental institutions. When there are accidents or crises, people with psychiatric diseases who don't want to be stigmatized commonly resort to ordinary hospital systems since they are commonly both accessible and always open. Understanding different psychological emergencies, as well as associated therapeutic care procedures, is crucial. So the very basic and important objective of this paper is to gain knowledge about some common psychological emergencies and their treatment.
Design/Methodology/Approach: Data from a number of reputable, official sources and journal articles were used to produce this clinical research output. Certain data from the emergency department have also been used to develop this study in order to make it more precise and scientific in type. The credibility of the publication has also been guaranteed by expert evaluations from neuropsychologists, general psychologists, doctors, and researchers who are conducting studies in the field.
Findings/ Result: Due to the increasing incidence of drug and alcohol abuse, depression, and other critical illnesses, more people are visiting the critical healthcare department. The occurrence of psychological events in non-psychological contexts, such as typical clinics and physicians' homes, and subsequent care is poorly documented by the few observational trials and scant precise information that are currently available. The available research emphasizes the need for improvements in both mental emergency evaluation and care. The treatment of this type of issue entails high expectations of the therapist's personality and conduct in addition to the required therapeutic competence. If the patient approaches the emergency department voluntarily or the family takes him/her to the clinic at the earliest, all the psychological problems can be treated with at most results.
Originality and value: A thorough attempt has been launched to shed some light on the issue of several frequent psychological emergencies and their appropriate diagnosis in the emergency room using only certain basic evaluation techniques and without wasting much time. Several evaluation tools and criteria have also been given for the convenience of various clinicians with varying levels of experience.
