    In the US, surviving the episode and immediatly going into medical debt is why the second attempt happens with them not reaching out to anyone.

          You seem to have misunderstood me.

          I understand that in many cases including yours it’s a bad outcome.

          However, in some cases where someone is intent on harming themselves and there are no other options at least EMS can prevent the worst possible outcome.

          Besides which, for the nth time, this seems to be an American thing.

          In many countries calling EMS or police for someone having a mental health crisis is perfectly reasonable.

            So American suffering doesn’t matter and we shouldn’t talk about it because another European wants to talk about how much better they are than Americans again. This thread is specifically about the American healthcare system, the meme specifically calls out the American healthcare system, you don’t need to center yourself in every conversation that isn’t about you. Sincerely dude, fuck off.
