once again |
it's another phone call night. i wonder how many of the crisis
line people know me by now? the person i spoke to last
remembered me.
i was supposed to be changing my safety contract today, but i
could barely function at all, much less talk through
intervention ideas. so i'm left with the dreaded phone call. it
feels too punitive, since i detest the telephone. i don't like
to talk to people i know, much less strangers. but i couldn't
think of anything else, so it stays.
things have just gotten worse since i upped my meds on thursday.
i see my pdoc in a couple of days, but we won't be changing
anything, just waiting to see if this increase helps at all. i
don't know why i'm driving an hour each way to hear and say that
waiting's the only option, but he wants to see me. i don't want
to go anywhere, but it's an obligation, so i will.
i'm going to go call now.

If they're after an involuntary incarceration, do they track you down by

they don't have caller id ,
at least where i was they didn't ,
but the operator does ,
and if it sounds like a serious call ,
you call the operator and she does the rest ,
like get the address and send the cops

one women i've spoken to a number of times has thanked me
for calling because she was struggling to stay awake and
appreciated having someone to talk to. turned the tables a
bit. my therp pointed out that if they're going to get
calls, mine are the type to get, since i'm rational and not
suicidal. they aren't going to have to convince me to go in
to the er or call for an involuntary. that's when it gets
messy.
If they're after an involuntary incarceration, do they
track you down by tracing your call?
they claim not to have caller id, though i doubt that's true.
they ask for a first name and usually a town when i call, but
that could be because my exchange is used for three towns.
once, they claimed they were just sending someone to check on
me to verify that i was ok. the next thing i knew, i had the
police, the fire department first responders, and an ambulance
at my house. i don't remember if i gave them an address. i got
stuck with a big bill for that one, too.
And that's bound to help suicidal feelings, isn't it? You should have
passed on the cost (you have to pay for these services?) to the phone
'helpers'; after all, you didn't call them, did you?

The opinions given above may be mine. They might also
just be what I feel like saying right now, okay?

yes, i had to pay. my health insurance paid for the ambulance,
but my mental health isurance refused to pay for the emergency
room because i wasn't admitted and didn't report it within 24
hours. i did end up in a different hospital the next day, but
that night i was pronounced fit to go home.

You can go private, or get into an e-mail exchange with someone; that
can be almost as fast.

e-mail i can handle. it just helps sometimes to have a minute to
compose my thoughts and correct my typos.

I've only done it once, when someone here wanted me to help her get
through a bad patch. I had to download and install a client, then set it
up, then we went private as soon as I appeared. I'm not sure I could
deal with immediacy, but it has its uses.
