Would entry into an ash cloud be an immediate Mayday call?

With the possibility of duel engine failure would that make it a distress situation?
There are other things to do first before you call the doctor.

Turn off AT, pull back on the thottles and turn.

Not much somebody on the ground is going to do for you. Then just aviate, navigate and then communicate
