Suicide Helplines?
Question:
Answers:
Welcome to America, and the Bush Administration. Nobody and or their personal issues are safe. suicide now, in the eyes of our government, constitutes you are not only willing to harm yourself, but others as well, putting you in the "terror suspect" class. USA today wrote up a huge piece on this very subject, and it's happening everywhere, wrong as it may be.
If you are having suicidal issues, do not call a state, or federally funded "Suicide Help" program. If you cannot find immediate people to convey your problems to, please go in person to find help. You never know when a simple call for help, can just about red flag you, and ruin your life. Be good or good at it folks.
its is to a certain point like if you say you gonna do a crime then they have to do some thing
yep, the number can be traced. your best bet is to call from a cell phone (can't trace the number and if they can it takes a reaaaallly long time) or dial *67 before making the call from a land line. if the call is gonna be quick no need to worry because it does take some time to trace the call. good luck!
Most hotlines will run a well check if your actively in the process of committing suicide - your on a ledge,youve got a gun,knife etc.
WarmLines however are generally peer staffed and will not.
The premise is if your taking the trouble to call before, your probably really want to live..
If you call a helpline like that they're assuming you're going to commit suicide and need help immediately.

The theory is "why are you calling the help-lines if you really
want to kill yourself. You would have done so by yourself,if you really wanted to die.What you are doing is asking for one last time for someone to help you and give a reason to live."
When the police are called in,it's only to help.
