Lucio: They hate me for being a slut, to be honest. And maybe the killings too but that's unlikely.

depressing news for US people with mental health issues (depressingly unsurprising) - first part pasted below:

The rapid growth of the new 988 mental health hotline has been greeted with positive media coverage. As many people expected, calls, texts, and chats to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, now renamed “988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline,” started climbing immediately with the launch of the 988 number in July of 2022. The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) and the nonprofit that was given centralized control over the 988 system, Vibrant Emotional Health (VEH), have been releasing monthly updates on key metrics.

In April 2023, compared to April 2022, calls answered increased by 52%, chats by 90%, and texts by 1022%. The trend was heralded by federal Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra to CNN: “Our nation’s transition to 988 moves us closer to better serving the crisis care needs of people across America. 988 is more than a number, it’s a message: we’re there for you.”

However, as previously reported by Mad in America, a percentage of people who contacted the former National Suicide Prevention Lifeline were subjected to geolocation tracing of their phone, computer, or mobile device. The Lifeline advertised itself as a place for confidential discussions about suicidal feelings but, according to its own policy, if a call-attendant believed a person might be at “imminent risk” of taking their own life in the next few hours, days, or week, the call-attendant was required to contact 911 or a Public Safety Answering Point to send out police and/or an ambulance to forcibly take the person to a psychiatric hospital.

Many Lifeline users described the experiences of betrayal, public exposure, police interactions, loss of freedoms, and forced psychiatric treatment as dangerous, harmful and traumatizing.

So, since the transition to 988, has anything changed? As contacts to 988 rise, how many people are getting forcibly subjected to these types of unexpected, unwanted interventions?

It appears detention numbers are climbing dramatically, too—even as VEH, SAMHSA, and many news outlets continue to obfuscate the facts publicly.

Psychiatric Detentions Rise 220% in First Year of 988

As contacts to the new 988 suicide hotline number have risen, so have call tracing and police interventions.

something else i see a lot is therapists quick to pathologise their patients setting any boundary in the therapist relationship. setting your own goals, changing what you want to focus on, asking for more or less appointments in a week, saying you wont talk about x, saying y treatment already failed for you, etc etc etc. theres endless ways to label you as bad and crazy for doing any of it.

resistant, attention seeking, dependent or codependent, insecure, aggressive, mistrustful, arrogant, antisocial, borderline, transference, projection, victim mentality, avoidant, histrionic, delusional, dominant, passive aggressive, toxic, etc etc. ive been called mistrustful and controlling for wanting to set my own goals and have a say in my own treatment and recovery. yknow, what the rest of my life will be like. but therapists hate that shit. in that too, they resemble less a health care professional and more so a probation officer.

AUTISM ACCEPTANCE MONTH QUOTE 12

Wednesday, April 17, 2024

“You hear as autistics we make poor eye contact, we have difficulty socialising, which are both very pathologising ways of describing something that is inherently neutral. You could completely rewrite the neurotypical experience to be just as pathologised, if you wanted to. … ‘I’ve discovered this new condition – sorry, disorder – called “Neurotypical Spectrum Disorder”, and people who are suffering or afflicted with this disorder often have poor attention to detail. They might have an obsession with meaningless small talk, social status, and ritualistic exchange or social grooming. They may demonstrate a lack of interest in exploring their favourite topics deeply. They will take many activities at once, aka “multitasking”, at the expense of all of them. They have a linear thought process and inability to think outside of the box on a daily basis.'” – Samantha Stein, Autistic traits are HUMAN traits: depathologising the autistic

*shakes you until you rattle* andrey called peter, himself and daniil "a threefold bullet", saying they are the three side of the same process. peter dreamed up the polyhedron, andrey executed it, and it is daniil's job to preserve it. daniil projected a lot of idealized and shallow hope onto the polyhedron which lead to him pulling the trigger but the twins are also paying the price for wishing to execute something beyond the capability of human understanding without caring about what it takes. all three of them destroyed both themselves and everyone else around them for the sake of their own idealized dreams. that's what the price of utopia is. and the kains were the ones to fire that threefold bullet because they did not want to get their hands dirty. it's an endless cycle of destruction for the sake of creation. death for the sake of life. do you understand.
