As a retired therapist myself, I must warn against "playing therapist" or allowing others to play therapist with your life. It is very dangerous indeed. You could wind up seriously hurt. Regardless of how one feels about therapists, there is a reason we are trained as we are. We are professionals, and a large part of that professional training is learning to not internalize the problems and issues of clients. Even with years of practice it is most difficult to master. Of course all of you here are adults and may do as you wish however I would not recommend this behaviour. PTSD is an extremely serious illness, not to be toyed with.

As has already been mentioned, this forum exists for support and education, not as a crisis line. Most cities and towns have 24 hour crisis lines, bigger cities also have hotlines for suicide specifically. In our area for instance, we have a mobile crisis unit which will dispatch a crisis worker to visit you in your home, day or night. If you are suicidal and do not have family, friends or a doctor to speak with, your local crisis centre will speak with you and advise you. You will usually find crisis centres on the first page of your telephone book, along with police, fire and other emergency numbers. They have the training and means to truly assist you, unlike the members upon this forum.
