I think because the don't want to deep down. Why would they want to help us when they can just live their life and I don't think they know how to help anyway.
This was my experience too. I was kicked off the service by a CCO who made up her own narrative on care plan which by law I should have had involvement in, a d since then I have been assessed twice, by total morons without a brain cell between them. Vacant expressions when i told of how i was suffering. No compassion just an "out to lunch" face. Who decides to employ these dicks?
Often the advice you get from a crisis line is ridiclously stupid and very much "I have tried reading a book, i have made myself a cup of tea, had a bath" which is why i will never call my crisis team.
Im lost why they are called a crisis team. They arranged the assessment ut as ive experienced, you get morons when you need compassionate caring staff.
Because they don't know how to help. They can't see things from the same perspective the suicidal person does, so they spout generic/silly advices thinking it means something. When they see it doesn't work, it becomes too much of a emotional charge to carry, so they distance themselves, thinking the problem will disappear while they are not looking.
RIGHT ON!

I wish there was a way to tell them this, anonymously. Maybe a letter to a related press / magazine, eg mental health group. Just thinking out loud. If someone knew this was how people REALLY feel, maybe someone would tell those knob heads, so hopefully they wouldn't be knobs any more. Its easy we all slag them off for the useless they are, but if someone's told "this isn't working, you need to help people and this isn't doing it," maybe theres more chance of shifting attitudes. Hm.
Well my family just doesn't take it seriously. They don't understand me at all and think that going to a psychiatrist is gonna be a shame on them... ugh.
Hi, sorry to hear that. It's nothing shameful to be unwell. People don't think twice about a broken leg. This stigma makes me so angry. Why should people avoid getting help to recover when they need it? Anyone can fall sick, including thise who stigmatise mental illness.
Because a lot of people (and society) don't want to help you, they want you to shut up and stop causing them "problems" by not being constantly happy or positive or productive and become "normal".
Hi Minsk I feel the same. Its all a damn pissing contest between those who never want to listen and when people lose someone they suddenly say "what went wrong how could i have missed the signs?" Because you didn't fucking listen thats why you missed them! CRap head. (Not you minsk, the ones suicidal people try to tell..)
This crap gets me so angry. Listen FFS that why people have ears.
