what is an example of a non-observable warning sign for a mental health condition in someone else?
select a response.

• they are cutting their arms.
• they are not participating in things they once loved.
• they are feeling worthless or hopeless.
• they are isolating themselves or pushing away friends.

Explanation:

To determine the non - observable warning sign, we analyze each option:

• "They are cutting their arms" is an observable action (self - harm behavior that can be seen).
• "They are not participating in things they once loved" is an observable change in behavior (we can see if they are engaging in activities or not).
• "They are feeling worthless or hopeless" is an internal emotional state. Feelings like worthlessness or hopelessness are not directly observable by others as they occur within a person's mind.
• "They are isolating themselves or pushing away friends" is an observable behavior (we can see if they are avoiding others or distancing themselves from friends).

Answer:

C. They are feeling worthless or hopeless.
