Discussion

Can't give details but I'm really concerned that someone I've known for many years (always a little on the spectrum) has deteriorated to a point where he's now a danger to himself by his actions? (To a certain extent by reason of his house being a semi he's a danger to the neighbours)
Basic steps would be good?

Speak to 111 and they can put you in touch with the local mental health teams. If older then there will be an older persons mental health teams. They are busy and it can sometimes take a little while to get the cogs to turn but they are good teams.
If you drop in that you fear for their life they tend to escalate quickly.
