Never call 988. Choose life or choose death, do not choose the additional 25 thousand dollar bill, degradation, trauma, and suffering that comes from 988. It’s a trap and the only people who win are big pharma, psychiatric inpatient facility investors or owners, and rich psychiatrists who sling drugs (that barely do more than a placebo), sling false hope, and sling financial exploitation.
My brother used to threaten to kill himself. My mom ended up calling the cops and they took him away on a 5150. They ended up electrocuting him in the facility. No wonder I don’t trust suicide hotlines or therapists.

Just say no to 988!

Just for context, 988 is a Canadian suicide crisis helpline.
That’s so disappointing that one of the first resources that comes up when searching for help would be, essentially, a trap.
