Understanding and Managing Violent Urges: Seeking Help

It is important to seek help from a mental health professional if you are having urges to kill. These urges could be a sign of a serious mental health condition, such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or depression.

A mental health professional can help you understand what is causing the urges and develop coping mechanisms to manage them. If you are in immediate danger of hurting yourself or someone else, please call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
