Re: Nothing
by Hazel
I agreee with the comment above. It must be so hard to feel sympathy for someone who is making work for you when there are so many people who have illness and injury through no such obvious fault of their own, especially if one hasn't had any personal experiences with self harm of any sort. I've been the person imposing themselves on healthcare providers. In the middle of the the night in an A&E department full to bursting. The guilt from that piled in on top of the guilt that I felt just for being alive at that point. For not having done it better, or planned it better. For NOT being brave enough to die and bottling out and calling help. The crazy things that you feel in that place are not comprehensible by the sane people around you. It seems as though depression, anxiety, hopelessness are not escapable except by this way. At least he called the ambulance. At least now someone knows a bit about what he is suffering. At least now he might be able to get help. And you won't be called to look at the body of a teenager who took the overdose and didn't call for help.
