Bpcyclist, I am also very happy you sought help, but sorry you became so ill as to need it. I have a similar story about calling 911 during a psychosis. Like you, I was lucky to have had a wonderful policeman help me. There were others with him, but the one took the lead. I am assuming he had the most training/experience with people in psychological crisis. That's so important since I believe a pretty high percentage of people they interact with have some form of psych issue.
