My first Sui attempt(a huge OD) a GF called cause she was worried about me, and I answered the phone without thinking. I was pretty messed up at that point but thought I reassured her that I was fine. Then there were cops and my GF pounding the door down. I assaulted the cops that were trying to put me in hand cuffs for a drive to the hospital. I was pissed that they were trying to save me. Nothing was filed against me tho.
I've been picked up numerous times in a dissociative state during the winter months for no being appropriately dressed for the weather. They always took me to the hospital where I'd "come to" later and be told where I was picked up. Have no idea how I appear to others when I was in that state but I'm grateful that they didn't take me to jail on suspicion of drugs.
Otherwise for the stuff I've done while manic I was lucky and never caught or I'd have a serious criminal record.
