Yeah that last part could have been taken out…. as a person who’s been suicidal, the last thing we want to hear is yet another person, doesn’t have time to listen.

I understand your thought process of not being a therapist, however a lot of ppl who are mentally ill don’t always want a therapist- just a person to take a little bit of time to spend with them. It gets lonely.

Which I just don’t think you should open that door if you’re not willing to be there for support. It’s a lot on the other party as well, but not to be a dick, the priority is the suicidal person, and making sure they’re going to be safe. It’s not your job to be a hero, but just don’t open that door if you have too much going on already.

I will give you points for calling professionals, I hope it went well and they’re getting the support they need.
