Lesson Overview

1.53 – Crisis Planning for Teens With Mental Health Diagnoses: A diagnosis clarifies patterns but doesn’t define potential. Build a personalized crisis plan around symptoms, medications, and triggers. Keep copies of prescriptions and provider contacts accessible. Collaborate with doctors to identify emergency thresholds — when to call, when to observe, when to medicate. Educate family members so everyone recognizes early warning signs. Post visual reminders of coping tools: music playlists, grounding objects, breathing apps. During escalation, focus on structure — predictability soothes anxiety-driven chaos. Update plans after each episode to refine what works. Normalize language around mental health to reduce shame. Preparation replaces fear with competence, reminding your teen that illness demands strategy, not secrecy, and that recovery thrives on routine teamwork.
