Back on topic, I talk about suicide with my therapist but I don't feel comfortable discussing these issue with other people as I don't want people looking at me or treating me differently. If " by dragged anywhere" you mean thrown in a mental hospital, it is very hard to admit someone unwilling to be admitted. I wish I knew that when my therapist threatened to put me in one last year!
I was dragged into a hospital with a police escort. All because I cut myself and wnet to see if I needed stitches. O explained that it was non threatening and that I would call my pdoc as soon as the office opened. By the time I left the room the officer was waiting for me.
Hence my lack of trust for most medical institutions.
