Sheesh, that's fucking terrible. I had naively assumed that suicide hotlines would ring to someone who would really listen to you and try to give you some perspective in a non-intrusive manner, which is what I imagine myself needing if I was in that position. Although I guess it's not terribly surprising to hear it's the bog standard pattern of friendly-faced leadgen that passes off execution to a misincentivized backend.

They do listen. They are well intentioned.

But, they are required by law to escalate the issue if they believe self-harm is imminent.
