Venting Mental health services are fundamentally broken: nothing tangibly changed after my first serious attempt.

I recently survived a major attempt pairing multiple methods together. The police response was massive, and the doctors did everything they could to revive me. There was so much effort put in place to prevent me from dying, and a part of me wondered if the level of care I received for my mental health would increase as well—that I would finally unlock some deeper, more urgent level of support. I have instead been reassigned to the same depersonalized online group sessions, and another change to my medications.

From reading posts on this forum, it has honestly been shocking to learn just how poor mental health services are across the world, and it turns out things are no different where I live as well. For all the awareness campaigns people and organizations push surrounding the topic of mental health, there is seemingly little care put into the resources we are directed to.
