I'm not gonna say the crisis I'm experiencing for private reasons but I tried TWICE texting *******- both of which never responded in over an hour of waiting. I understand a lot of mental health crisis' happen at night but that shouldn't make my crisis feel invaluable or invalid at all- and, it certainly shouldn't go unseen! Even now, I'm still waiting for the second persons response- absolutely NO ONE STILL. This is truly unbelievable and downright sick. I need advice and support, and a good safe space to vent. But what I got? A message saying "You are still being connected to a counselor" and hours of waiting for NOTHING. If anything, I could've slept this stress off and asked my mom for help- if it weren't 3:30 in the morning, instead of waiting for this thing for absolutely nothing. I fully FULLY recommend not doing this. Plus, the people all sound like bots too. The way the messages are all usually the same or go in the same general direction? Like- if that isn't a bot or scripted, than idek what is. Do not do this! I recommend calling a crisis line so you can hear an actual person who might even answer sooner- and Trevortext.
