Intentionally vague use of “emergency situation” to encourage people to share. If you handle emergency situations as a profession, what’s a particularly interesting one.

The last real “emergency” emergency I was involved in, was on the phone to someone who was talking to a guy on the edge of the bridge.
Friend of mine was out delivering parcels and stopped because of a crowd on the bridge. They were worried because everyone was watching and waiting for the police, no one was talking to the guy who was looking down at the water.
They called me to ask what to do or say when they approached them.
That friend of mine is now a therapist themselves and a damn good one too.
Sorry If this is insensitive, but did the person in the bridge end up jumping?
I think that’s a natural question to wonder.
He did not jump, he talked with my friend for a while and when the police got there they talked for a bit too and then he climbed back to safety.
It was surreal for me, being on the phone and hearing it all, but not being able to speak to anyone for most of it.
