Protecting yourself during a crisis is important.

Protecting yourself during a crisis is important.

You must learn how to stay safe if the person in crisis is throwing objects at you.  The first thing you should do is block and move to safety.  This means put your hands up in front of your face and move out of the way to a place where you can avoid being hit.  During this time, make sure to protect your groin, throat, stomach, and eyes with your hands and arms.  If possible, leave the room quickly.  You do not want to be stuck in a place that will cause you potential serious harm.  Your safety is a priority.

Acknowledging your emotions is important during a crisis.

Acknowledging your emotions is important during a crisis.

When dealing with a person in crisis, they may say things that are offensive or hurtful.  It is important to practice rational detachment so that what they say does not cause us to escalate and show heightened emotions. We may feel upset or angry during these situations, but by acknowledging your emotions, you can gain a better understanding of what you’re experiencing and prevent them from overwhelming you. If necessary, feel free to walk away for a few minutes to regain your composure.  (crisisprevention.com)
