Crisis Line

Our health care system needs to change dramatically. It is such a joke.

Every time I call they are so sweet and patient. They have been able to help me through emotional crisis more times than I can count. They may not be able to solve all my problems but they help give me other perspectives to think about and always stay on the line with me until I feel better.

I can't imagine many people comment or review a crisis line due to privacy, luckily I'm not shy! It takes a lot of courage to ask for help and a huge amount of bravery to seek it. Klinic has grown into a big organization with many programs, all of which seem to be quite helpful though the wait times are long. An indication the government needs to help out and get more funding for this essential service. I have called the Crisis line before and the counsellors are amazing. They listen, they empathize, they help and by the time you are done, you feel better. If you need further help they will work with you to make sure you know what your next steps are. I like on their website they mention the line isn't JUST for someone IN CRISIS. Too many people suffer thinking their issue isn't 'big enough' or 'important enough' to warrant a call - not true! If you are having some big emotions, problems concentrating, it's best to deal with it and talk it out so it doesn't get bigger and then out of control for you. A family member who is opposed to talking to strangers on a one-time option finally agreed to try them in between their therapy sessions as a bridge when some big emotions arose. She was very happy and felt safe and comfortable. The counsellor helped and it was just what was needed so said family member could make it through the week into the regular therapy session. For myself, I have had some big emotions and challenges to the point it's hard to concentrate or get motivated. At first I think "Well why bother calling, what can they really do?" but I dial anyways and to my surprise, just sharing my feelings, my challenges, having someone listen and offer some words of support is all I need to feel strong enough to keep pushing forward. Very impressed with them but there are often wait times to get through via phone - I do hope they get more funding so they can help more people - thank you Klinic and to your counsellors...you have likely saved more lives than you will ever know!
