A good tip, many counties have what's called a mobile crisis unit. It's like an ambulance of mental health workers that come to your home and don't take you anywhere. Usually calling 988 you can ask them to help you find yours if you can't find it.

Even more proof that our system is fucked cause 911 should just defer to that for mental health but that they also called the wrong support line for what they needed.

In some places, but not all, 911 will dispatch them and usually these crisis teams are required to bring at least one officer with them.

Hopefully they can stop the officer from shooting the patient's dog.
