Hello. I'm still alive, unfortunately. But I return with some insights about what to look for in crisis services so that they don't call the cops. The terms 'non-carceral' and 'non-escalation/non-escalationist' seem to be key search terms. There ARE crisis services out there with this philosophy, but they're rarer and underfunded. I hope this changes. I didn't intend to be talked out of my suicide, but I'm an impatient and impulsive person at times, and at some point the fire left my body. I was looking for my pencil case to write some things, and I felt the exhaustion hit me. After the exhaustion came anger. How is it that I have a spine but the people around me are so spineless? But here I am, your angry motherfucker.
