dytkos 17,819 Posted February 3, 2023 Report Share Posted February 3, 2023 I first heard about AMC on Talksport a few years back and have recommended it to a few of the "customers" I work with. Had a woman commit suicide at one of the sites at work last night. So tragic. R.I.P. D. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gnasher16 30,361 Posted February 3, 2023 Report Share Posted February 3, 2023 (edited) The timing of these topics is mad....last couple of weeks ive been in a painful battle with a dear friend of mine who 3 times has phoned me in the middle of the night threatening to top himself.......rushing round there like a lunatic ive got there to find him in a state but both myself and his mrs are of the opinion that he hasnt got it in him to actually do it.....but what do you do,not respond ?.....its a " little boy who cried wolf " situation.....we've managed to now get him under a Home Treatment Team for mental problems and his medication is being changed but its a constant worry at the moment,soft as it sounds its making me f****n ill !.....he,s never been the full shilling but you cant just give up on lifelong friends can you he used to be a big drinker and i spent a few years going to AA meetings with him but this is just beyond anything i know or understand.....last week he rang saying the world was going to end at midnight,a few days ago he rang crying saying he'd " done it " and can i get round there with an ambulance......even this morning ive sat there with him and a doctor saying this will be his last chance at being treated at home before the men in white coats drag him away,personally i think being sectioned will be the best thing for him but then i start going on a guilt trip wondering if it will suit me more than it suits him as i/we cant take much more !.......ive probably been a bit flippant with mental illness over the years and passed it off as " attention seeking " type stuff......im learning first hand its a horrible,frightening thing i wouldnt wish on anybody.....on a lighter note why does it appear that virtually everybody involved the mental health industry are African !

Big problem in the forces when lads get out. They just can’t adjust to civvi street and end up tipping themselves. I know of 9 guys that have done it for seemingly no reason. sounds like your mate needs sectioning for his own safety. As much as you can be there for him you are not a professional and at some stage just being a mate isn’t enough and going into hospital is the only answer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
