Upcoming Foreclosures

I am a mental health patient and the library keeps calling the police to 'check' on me ?

I moved to a small town because I am disabled and wanted to get away from city life -now this small town is great yet twice librarians have called the police to check on me -''concern'' runs -I have never been helped by a police man- NEVER-and these 'concern' runs bother me for days afterward -I am afraid that they will put me in a lock-down unit for 5 days-just long enough to get my disability check canceled for a month and leaving me unable to pay my rent -leaving me homeless . This has happened to me twice in the past and I will not go quietly anymore and I am so afraid I will hurt someone -something I swore I would never do again . Is there a protocol I may follow before this escalates into a body count ? All I did was cry when I read an article a few weeks ago about Fannie Mae stopping foreclosure on a 90 year old widows home only after she had shot herself in the chest -I have a great deal of empathy for the elderly as my grandmother rescued me from DFC when my family dissolved when I was 4 .

Public Comments

1. Don't go to the library
2. Sarah, hang in there a while longer, sweetie, Fixed Noise will come along with a job offer soon.
3. If you act strangely in public people are going to call police...Simple as that...If you cant behave normally and not draw attention to yourself maybe you should get on a better medication or stay inside.
4. Well if you don't want the police to be called I wouldn't mention body counts.
5. Write yourself a note on your hand like Stay cool. or this will pass. or if you feel like your going to upset someone around you take a quick 5-10 minute walk outside to just clear your head
6. Based on this, I'd say you need to be working with a good mental health therapist and with the police instead of against them. You sound a bit paranoid and I think you need to let the police in this town know of your situation, that you are fine and receiving all the help you need. You appreciate the concern but you don't need their assistance. You didn't, however, say why the librarians are calling the police, is there something new in your behaviour that would make them nervous? A concern check only means that the police want to make sure everyone is safe and doesn't need any help.
7. I can tell your extremely sensitive, I have felt that level of sensitivity. I have worries that I am going to be sectioned all the time, and have people complaining about my behavior. I have a mental health disability (autism). But I cannot see how the library staff can have any part in this. If your threatening in any way (as you mentioned above about hurting people), yes they will call the police. The police would then note that you have a disability and that could effect what they do with you. If this is not the case, then you should think about ensuring that you evaluated as being of no threat to anyone in regards to mental health related behaviour. That means psychology tests etc. If your sectioned under the mental health act, there should be a record of this happening which I assume can be used as a means of undoing any disability payment problems etc. Medical records etc should be good evidence that this occured. I am in the United Kingdom, so I am not really sure what the legal situation is where you live. Snow Man
8. 1. Stay out of the Library for a while. 2. Seek one on one mental evaluation from a psychologist. 3. Get put on the proper medication 4. Don't stop taking your medication even if you would rather not be on it. 5. Tell your friends and family what medication you are taking and tell them to help you stay on it.
