Do any targets here have experience with calling suicide hotlines?
Was that experience helpful to you? What parts were good? What was bad?
I want to recommend resources with positive outcomes for targets.
Bad: Did responder snowball your crisis into legal charges?
Bad: Did responder threaten to call 911 at any point?
Bad: Did responder assume you're schizophrenic?
Good: Did responder keep you out of police custody?
Good: Did responder help you feel better, without labels?
Good: Did responder not offer up a mental hospital or emergency clinic?
Are there any target organizations or support groups, that would be willing to offer crisis response, to fellow targets? I think this would be the most ideal solution, but would require professional licensing, and operating costs like a phone hotline. I do not have the income, time, or disposition to be offering such.
Are any of the existing lifelines, good enough?
You've called one, and did they help you feel better?
How should this subreddit better respond to suicidal ideation?
There are warmlines

This is just a list of state ones, there are all kinds of them though. They are best for preventing a crisis before it happens or just to have someone to talk to and they usually don’t call the police on you unlike hotlines.
Thank you, I'll add this to the auto responder.

Also please share your thoughts about this suicidal ideation autoresponder.
Are these good resources to tell targets about?
Are there better resources?
Your post or comment appears to contain suicidal ideation. No one wants to talk to a robot about that, but know that this auto response was written by a fellow target, that actually cares about you. When you cannot wait for someone to talk to, consider calling 988 (not 911), or contact: * National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1-800-273-8255 (Veterans, Press 1) * Crisis Text Line: Text HOME to 741741 * Transgender Lifeline: 1-877-565-8860 * LGBTQ Youth Lifeline: 1-866-488-7386 * Warmline Directory: https://www.warmline.org/results/\?directory_type\=warmlines * Discuss: https://www.reddit.com/r/Gangstalking/comments/1o3cp63/suicide_prevention_resources/
