Help

 I would actually like to know how many of you, have had any kind of thought suicidal or other because life is weighing you down. And decided to try to seek help through 988 and actually got the help that you needed. On a whim I dialed 988 on needing the help and it took me 2 minutes and 58 seconds before somebody would actually answer.. But aren't they supposed to be there when you need them. An automated system is not an answer. So how long is somebody that actually is thinking that way it's supposed to say and hold before they can actually talk to somebody, before they just say forget it. I know that when somebody wants to actually commit suicide they won't tell anybody or reach out for help they'll just find a way to do it because they're at their wits end, but they're only at that point because they've tried to reach out for help and friends family or anybody else ignored the signs. Nowadays with everybody analog and more worried about followers or making money as opposed to investing in friends and family is rare and that makes me very sad. Eventually you have to disconnect to reconnect to the things that matter and the younger generation is not going to get it but the right people should.
