How did your therapists or psychiatrists react to your suicide attempts?

[noname223]

My former therapist tried to ruin me by writing lies in my medical records. And seemingly the whole industry is backing her. And she gets away with it with no punishment. I am just disgusted by the whole filthy corrupt people who are responsible for that.

I have fantasies of killing myself in revenge. Maybe they would have to investigate my case more closely then. It is unlikely that I will make it mostly because my mom would have another stroke most likely. But I still fantasize to kill myself a lot because of all of that. And if I kill myself in the longrun this incident will have played a major role. I simply cannot trust professionals anymore. And with my conditions this is a serious problem.

How have your therapists and psychiatrists reacted to your suicide attempts? And how critical was the suicide attempt?

I only visited the psychiatrist once before ghosting her, but I remember she did the Metal Gear thing where she would repeat a phrase of my sentence back to me in surprise.

"I climbed up a cell phone tower to hang myself?"
"A cell phone tower?"

Honestly I didn't even think of it as a real attempt (and still kinda don't) because I eventually took the noose off and stepped down, but apparently the nurses did not agree because it earned me a psych ward stay. The cuts on my arms and the state of my bedroom was not helping my case though.

one of my psychiatrists would hit me with the classic "i'm going to scare the shit out of you, maybe then you'll stop being erratic".
