May 6, 2026 – Common signs someone may be struggling with their mental health include changes in sleeping patterns, changes in eating habits, and extreme mood changes.
On someone’s timeline, those signs can include an abrupt change in the style, tone, or subject matter. “And frequently these days you may see very nihilistic memes or things coming to nothing or, you know, references to songs or media. And that’s part of their background where it hasn’t been,” Dr. Smink Sangsura, a psychiatrist with Ochsner LSU Health, explains. If you are growing concerned about a loved one, the first step would be to reach out in person, by text, or by phone to initiate a conversation.
Dr. Sangsura says if there is an immediate safety concern, you can contact local police to perform a welfare check.
