@Bunniekins you definitely have to be careful what you say to them. In saying that I've had ones call police and ambos for no reason. I get they have to be cautious and act if they believe there's a risk but sometimes they jump to conclusions and waste valuable resources.

@Dreamy so true. but you know the whole point is for the client to be able to be honest with their feelings and open up. they thought i was going to hurt myself and significant others which is mad because it is part of my schizo doesnt mean i would do it and my mental health nurse who i can say anything to says i am a risk to no one. maybe myself when i get into these depressive moods but definitely no one else.
