OmG. I caaannnn't believe they said that to you! Who would treat anyone like that? I'm not sure if you were or not, but if somone in a state such as yourself was also feeling so out of control so as to be suicidal, that's just the type of triggering phrase to push them over the edge - I mean, they've given an idea of how to accomplish it!
If it were me, I'd get my records from that visit and make a call to the director of operations at minimum and report what was said to you, so something similar doesn't happen to someone.
So awful that happened to you!
