Rules fоr deаling with Disturbed Cаllers (Chаpter 6) Slоw dоwn: Slow down emotional responses and focus on here-and-now issues, avoiding more feelings. Refuse to hallucinations and delusions: Crisis workers should acknowledge but not affirm callers' delusions, focusing on help and reality-oriented questioning instead.

Knowledge of medications and their effects is essential. Keep expectations : Crisis workers should maintain realistic expectations, focusing on temporary control and reality for highly anxious callers.
