Got welfare checked, scored 20/20 on the suicide risk assessment, and they let me go home

This is the most accurate description of the life of a suicidal person ever. Gathering multiple options, the cop takes away the presumably shadier one, you get a maxed out score on a suicide inventory and then have to go to lunch.

Honestly... At some point it becomes so surreal you kind of just accept it

i'm gonna sound like a hypocrit when i say this but i feel like its kindof their responsibility to act a little more concerned. I know being commited to a mental hospital sucks, i've never been but the stories i hear are something else, but even then I don't think just pushing someone into that enviroment should be the only option for treatment so i dunno.

Being institutionalized to a mental hospital wouldn't really help in my case as the one nearby is under resourced comparatively and I am already receiving quality + ongoing psychiatric care in my local area. The only purpose to institutionalize me would be to prevent access to SN which they know I won't do anytime soon/without telling them.

They acted plenty concerned and are working diligently to help me however they can, in my experience.

Healthcare varies by jurisdiction unfortunately so other people may have different experiences. I think Canada has a relatively good model.

You're a strange person picking fights on a suicide forum for people who are at or near their lowest point in life.

I find your judgements distasteful. Dying isn't the lowest point of my life and neither has been the journey to develop my strength enough to die.

Have a nice day, but next time if you feel weird about somebody else just move on without saying it cuz it's not your god damn business what I have or haven't come to find solace in.

Like the lyric from Walking In The Rain, you are "dismissed", at far as me responding to your drivel, anyway. Have a nice day.
