- Mood is very low, and there is hopelessness or talk of ending life
- The person hears or sees things others do not, or holds strong beliefs that are not true
- There are extreme highs: very little sleep, racing thoughts or risky behaviour
- The person has stopped eating, sleeping or caring for themselves for days
- Behaviour is unsafe for the person or for others
- Treatment as an outpatient has not helped, or symptoms are getting worse
- Home cannot give the supervision or safety needed

Mental hospital or Psychiatric hospital: what is the difference?
People search for both names. “Mental hospital” is the everyday phrase. “Psychiatric hospital” is the medical term. Both mean a hospital where psychiatrists treat mental illness with medicines, therapy and round-the-clock care.
Today, a good psychiatric hospital is about treatment and recovery. At Athena Behavioral Health, Greater Noida, a psychiatrist decides on admission after an assessment, and patients have rights under the Mental Healthcare Act, 2017. Many people also continue care as outpatients after they go home.
How we treat
- Psychiatric Assessment and Diagnosis: a full review of symptoms, history and risks using standard scales.
- Medication management: the right medicine at the right dose, reviewed regularly by your psychiatrist.
- Psychotherapy and Counselling: individual, group and family sessions.
- Mindfulness, Yoga and Wellness: daily routine and activity to support sleep and mood.
- Family involvement and discharge planning: the family is included, and a follow-up plan is agreed before discharge.
