I must say that this is the only “role play” video that I actually like because you are a kind hearted, compassionate therapist. Most of these role play videos are conducted by robotic therapists who give scripted responses.
They’re probably mostly students doing it for the first time
We really need to make more awareness about suicide and depression..people are really not taking it seriously unless they've experienced it themselves .....
Him: Pretty crushing
Her: Are you fucking making puns?
I thought the very same thing!!
I thought this was a great role play up until the end when you started to get into safety contracting territory, which the evidence really doesn't support. I appreciate that at least you didn't make the commitment about you, the therapist ("promise me and sign this saying that you won't..."), but at least made it about her supports and protective factors she identified.
This helps, I’m not trained and my friend is suicidal and I rly rly don’t wanna lose her rn, I’m only 14 and this has never been more serious
Tell your parents or a trusted adult.

I told our school pastor, she is a bit upset with me but it’s for her better, this video helped me communicate properly with her, or better than I could have done
@@unknownstranger6346 Hey, I'm proud of you for helping your friend. It takes a lot of courage to say something. I hope you and her are doing okay now.
@@unknownstranger6346 Hey! This video is for assessing someone to find out if there is a serious risk to the person's life. If you feel your friend, or someone you know, is at risk for suicide you need to tell a parent or trusted adult.
@@russcurtis1I'm struggling with self-harm since I was 15 years old and 21 but I am a special needs adult so my mom has medical power attorney over my medical distinction my psychiatric and therapist says that the hospital is not a option because I have been Inpatient since I was 15 but now I am 21 I recently lost my dad 3 months ago
Dr. Curtis: you said a few things I wanted to ask you about: (1.) Early on, it sounded like you were going to see if she needed to be hospitalized. If you had determined that she needed to be hospitalized, what would have happened next?.....(2.) At the end, you said you were going to "get it writing".....what is that you would have had her write? Thanks for your time.
Can’t hear it
So not realistic. Or maybe I’m weird. I break out crying all the time and the last shit I want is hospitalization. They always want to medicate and hospitalize. No wonder so many people don’t seek help.
Exactly that’s why I’m scared to go to my first therapy appointment because I want to be honest abt my feelings but I don’t want to go to a mental hospital or something so Im stuck with either lying and not really getting the help I need or telling the truth but then getting treatment that I don’t want like hospitalization 🤷🏻♀️
Exactly. I understand you completely!!
What causes the crying? The other day I was telling my pulmonologist about how my daytime sleepiness is so severe that I have locked my office door, crawled under my desk, and napped. I started to hysterically cry. That’s not normal, is it? She noted in my chart the “emotional reaction.”
“‘More frequently” is 1000000% I’ll help but you’re gonna pay a lot
People who Cheat is a waste of time.
Get well soon keep follow up with ur doc and go to emergency room if u feel suicidal
Lmfao
It never goes like this
I am having suicidal thoughts but I never told my parents because I think They are not going to believe me and I feel like is just too much there is many things I wanna talk about with someone my grades are not so good so my family are pressuring me to be an amazing student but I need them to understand that I’m a human not a robot and my mom and grandma fight a lot when I was 8 years old I think I got traumatized because I never saw my mom cry so much and she left the state
for 1 year and I feel that that made me really hurt and I feel like they don’t support en I feel like I’m disturbing everyone there is just too much for me I’m stil l a kid and is a lot of pressure for me The thing that keeps me alive to be honest is listening to music is a way of forgetting my problem but still I cry almost all nights and I don’t know what else to do with my life..
Hey, that sounds difficult. I can see why you are feeling the way you are. Is there someone you could talk to at school or somewhere in your community? I have felt similarly and it really helped to talk things out. Please consider asking for help.
@@tanishagirl yes Don’t worry I talked with my school and they helped me out and I’m currently having therapy thank you for worrying
@@YN-zr6zbah I am so happy to hear that. Good for you for asking for help. All the best with therapy, I hope you start feeling better soon.
@@tanishagirl Yes thank you I hope so too
I am one year late on this thread, but I really hope you are doing good in life. I read this quote from time to time as a reminder....
Everything in life is temporary. So if things are going good, enjoy it because it won’t last forever. And if things are going bad, don’t worry. It can’t last forever either
- author unknown.
This quote serves as a reminder to enjoy the good things in life, but also serves as a reminder that bad things don't last forever. We just have to be reminded to be patient with ourselves and to always LOVE ourselves no matter what.
This why I never accepted counselling and I don't complete any health questioner! It is very fine line between feeling bad and being made to think you have a mental health problem!
I'm so sorry you've watched this and it's confirmed your worst fears about counseling. this is a terrible example of how to support someone in this situation.
Its this a real case scenario and does the client gave consent?
Anyway its really good, if i were the client(just imagining not her), i felt u r being really neutral and I am not pressured to suicide or not suicide👍
It’s a role play
Did you not read the title? ROLE PLAY
I haven't listened to it yet but man there's just something about this video that feels so wrong and disturbing'just scrolling through it..🙈
