Psychological
crisis refers to psychological imbalance aroused when people
meet with sudden or significant adversities in life such as
decease of relatives, divorce or natural disaster or accidents.
It is characterized by strong psychological pressure, feeling
uncomfortable not to the degree of lunacy but hardly getting
rid of the difficulty independently.
Psychological
crisis intervention is to quickly locate problems disturbing
one's mind, analyze them and help him out of the predicament.
