Are the people who jump at 911 at all educable regarding the difference between depressed mood and suicidality?

I wish I knew. Luckily they were just threatening. Thing is I have been labeled high risk so they can take me in first and ask questions later. But again I feel I must reiterate that I am not suicidal nor have I had an attempt in years but some labels seem impossible to make disappear. I am depressed and overwhelmed. Money is extremely tight and daughter has a brain cyst and needs drs and medicines and we are so fortunate to somehow make too much for healthcare programs but not enough to really pay for all these visits and tests and medicines and such, but it is so hard as she has been in lots of pain lately. I don't know what to do. I feel helpless but that does not mean I am planning to take myself out of the equation. I promise so why can't I just feel depressed and work through this instead of feeling I need to just make myself better??????????? sigh. Thanks for letting me vent.
