Does that mean the service will be worse going forward. Potentially endangering lives

I'd insert some quote about fear here, but I don't know a good one off-hand. In any case, I don't believe it to be a good excuse.

Can you elaborate a bit ?

It's not a good excuse. Was just a question

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

You didn't ask a question. You made two statements implying that holding this company accountable for illegal actions, robbing people of money, is harmful.

Go fuck yourself.

No fuck you. Do you work in mental health. ? No. Then fuck off.

Do you have people killing themselves on the other fucking line ? No

Fuck off

I do not condone corporations, I do when loves are put at risk. That I then have to deal with.

I wasn't advocating for the service. I asked who this service put peoples lives at risk. I condone all that you mentioned. It's obviously a terrible service. However if it kept people alive then the food outweighed the bad.

These comments these people don't understand mental health. Or maybe they do. Who's to say. I contract for mental health charity. Do t even get minimum wage. We aren't fully trained and have 1 phone line.

Yet I've talked down dozens of people in crisis and one on a roof. Service doesn't charge and it's not this corporate bullshit.

Fuck the CEO and the practice. However if it kept one person all be who otherwise would have died. ? In the any case. Fuck y'all.

See you next year

That is obscene; people in crisis deserve so much more. THANK YOU for doing what you do. I hope your goodness to others in need finds its way back to you, multiplied, and that your new year gives you all that you have hoped for it.
