Comment on AG Letitia James wins $740,000 settlement from online mental health provider Cerebral
ChunkMcHorkle@lemmy.world 8 months agoI contract for mental health charity. Do t even get minimum wage. We aren’t fully trained and have 1 phone line.
That is obscene; people in crisis deserve so much more. THANK YOU for doing what you do. I hope your goodness to others in need finds its way back to you, multiplied, and that your new year gives you all that you have hoped for it.

It’s a charity. Government don’t pay shit. They don’t care.
I just keep people from killing themselves. Even then I don’t really do anything. It’s generally very easy because people inherently don’t want to die.
They want the suffering to stop. If anything what we do is worse by keeping them alive we solve none of those problems.
Also I don’t do much at all. Mostly it’s run by volunteers and I just deal with crisis calls and active suicides.
