You can begin without diagnosing, arguing, or demanding an urgent decision. Use the Treatment Decision Center to clarify the next steps, then review Admissions and Contact when the person is ready. Choice has outpatient offices in Albuquerque and Las Cruces for someone starting in Gallup. Asking a calm, specific question is a reasonable first step.

Would you be willing to discuss what kind of help you might want?” Avoid labels, threats, and claims about diagnosis. The urgent goal can be listening rather than securing agreement.
