Also would be very interested to hear from those who were involuntarily treated themselves

    There isn’t anything here yet (you can’t call 911 and get someone other than the cops, there is a helpline for people to call themselves though, a suicide prevention line that does try to put people in touch with help) and I strongly agree with you it’s not police work. Luckily she was a young white lady, sort of cop kryptonite.

    Hopefully it’s better in other places but it’s a difficult problem, no way to make it an easy one.
