The police escorted me to the emergency department one night, because I was suicidal. One officer, named Sarah stayed with me, until I was sent to the inpatient psych unit. She was very nice, talkative and non-judgemental. I remember her discussing her upcoming wedding. Sharing this actually helped calm me. I will never forget her.
Since, I have never been in trouble with the law, I was curious to know what being in hand cuffs was like. I asked, but she refused to cuff me.
