The police can be nasty and charge you for wasting their time in certain circumstances
We had the police called to our house when I was younger-twice and I'm surprised they weren't more irate or didn't charge anyone for misusing their time and resources.
Granted, I am basically a common denominator in both instances and ran from the sites of conflict.
One of the incidents was when I, Myself, pretended to dial 911 on my brother for throwing some of my belongings into the backyard and being impolite when retrieving them back for me Lol (dumb)!
I accidentally hit the last 1 when I had the phone in my hand and immediately hung up when I realized what I had done. This was a landline. They called back until my mother answered and they said they had to come anyway, just to be sure nothing was going on. I ran up to the bathroom and pretended to take a shower like the coward I am lmao.
They just thought it was funny and lectured both my brothers on why it's not nice to throw your sister's makeup into the woods!! (I should have thanked them, as attempting to wear makeup never helped me become any less ugly!)
The other incident, I was angry at my mom so I knocked over her purse.
She called the police on me.
Yes. For knocking over her purse, off a table, in our own home.
I then proceeded to throw white chocolate baking chips all over the kitchen floor and then cover them all in maple syrup (ala Aunt Jemima). (I guess the goal was to make a mess to get back at her).
Then I ran. AGAIN LOL. I hid under the back neighbors porch and they literally came looking for me (with what sounded like dogs), I was wearing a bright red sweatshirt, and they even asked the neighbors if they saw a girl in red come by.
I couldn't believe it!!
I mean, you would have thought I was on the run for murder.
Insane.
I was so afraid to come out that I stayed there for hours and hours, the elderly neighbor even came down under the porch to get some supplies and I was directly across from them, laying down under this wooden nook. All he had to do was turn to the left and he would meet my eyes.
I probably would have given the poor guy a heart attack. Either that or he might've attacked me, thinking I was the red wearing crazed lunatic on the loose.
Looking back-although nothing makes me laugh out of joy anymore- both incidents were hilariously stupid. But at the time, it was scary!
I was a kid.
These were over a decade ago, my mother can't believe she called the cops, it was probably out of frustration building up. And used as a scare tactic. Just like mine was when I grabbed the phone in retaliation on my brother's actions.
There were FAR more severe fights that went on in my house, so it's crazy the cops were called for the benign ones.
It's bizarre that you hear about much more serious incidents being ignored and having the police never show up, least not in time. People lose their lives over delayed assistance, or the 911 operator not taking the call seriously.
The contrast between those incidents and my own ridiculous anecdotes cause me to believe that you just can't know for sure what reaction you will get from the authorities. It may be way out of proportion or it may be intensely dismissive.
I just hope the police are feeling lazy and unbothered when my day comes to CTB, just over and done with, call it a suicide and call it a day.
Why would you purposefully leave links to any organization? Leave a copy of Final Exit book? Leave links to this forum or another one? You would just contribute to their desire to shut all of these sources of help down. Somebody suggested it and you just seemed to ignore it. MAKE A VIDEO. That would end the investigation before it starts. You are in the wrong state of mind to be honest. You are worrying about something that just does not matter. And to serve your peace of mind you think of leaving links to organizations that helped inform you to successfully die under your own control.
Making a video is a good idea. I don't want anyone to see my face though, so maybe I will make a voice recording, or a video where I only show parts of myself, but enough to identify who is speaking.
I would like to post here when I cbt for comfort and to give information to others, but I'm afraid I might fall asleep before I can log off. I don't want anyone to know about this place. SS has been so helpful to me! I don't want to cause trouble for the forum, which apparently has happened in the past. I'm just going to leave a short handwritten note, and hopefully that will be the end of it. I'm also going to turn face and fingerprint recognition off, which should make it harder for LE to access my devices. I feel fairly confident that my parents won't cause an uproar. We're private people, and they know how much I'm suffering.
I would like to know how often they go through the trouble of gaining access to locked devices and locked accounts.
I know that even when someone dies of natural causes, or an accident, the family seems to have trouble gaining access to things they don't have the passwords for.
