I have spoken to nurses about what happened so i have gotten advice from preofessional for the "outlet"
The web posts are just to show people and share what happened to me.
And yes i have told this on more places then here as i have no problems sharing.

There's this word I'm thinking of what is it , I can really recall it's where you go around telling everyone what you did. Darn it just can't think of the word right now.

Well I see it as someone who did something that benefitted someone and wants his ego stroked. I also see someone taking something that although a serious problem was not life threatening, suicides do not go to the store and then go outside and cut themselves.
I see it as a bad situation that yeah you did the right thing by calling emergency medical services , but instead you wrote the situation as you were a shining knight in armor descended from the heavens and due to your awesome FIRST AID TRAINING you were able to easily and calmly deal with this situation.
What I am suppose to reward you for doing the right thing.
Hey guys I didn't murder anyone today , please give me your praise.

You could find a couple of more websites to post your story on. Possibly take out a ad in EON to get your message out that FIRST AID training is useful.

typically, when you do a good thing, your first reaction isn't to go tell the internet and wait for praise to roll in. I mean, I've stopped a mugging and tackled a little girl out of the way of a car, but I don't feel the need to tell the internet, and those are both WAY more interesting stories than this.

Guys, whether the post is for an ego-stroke or not, he did something good(tm). If his wanting to be praised for that bothers you, don't bump his thread to the top with your post that won't be read by many people compared to the one that started the thread. |

This is weird guys, you've prolly Googled everything you wanted to know before, but why not google and read up how to perform CPR..
Learn CPR the simple way!
Honestly, how many of yous have?
I'm a paramedic, recently took the "CPR new guidelines training" of one of the leading emergency doctors in Belgium. He said he can't remember how much ribs he has broken whilst performing CPR, and his hart-rate still goes up everytime he does it. It's not a crime!

What on earth is the matter with some people on these forums? Go back to the other bad tempered and bad mannered Eve forums, it's quite nice in here!
Another heart warming story, and why you should be first aid trained:

About the by-standers,
I wasn't going to post but I experienced something today that really got to me. I was in an amusement park with the my kid, wife and my baby daughter. I met another dad near the kid's rides section. He was alone with his baby daughter. We talked for a few minutes waiting inline for some sodas.
An hour later I see the same guy running around, crying uncontrollably and calling the baby girl's name. By his tears I could tell he had been crying for a few minutes at least. I looked around for like 2 seconds, everybody was looking at him, but nobody was doing *NOTHING*.
I looked and my own little girl and thought 'crap! this could be me!' and started running too, looking everywhere. My wife told my kid what was happening and they also started running through the rides calling the girl's name. It took 30 seconds for the girl to hear people calling her name and come out of their hiding place.
It all ended well, but I'm still surprised that nobody else did anything. Not even park employees. There were over 200 ppl there, from different nationalities/cultures. And nobody, *NOBODY* did anything. Everybody just looking as if it were some kind of show. Back at home, I still keep asking myself, did we help because we just met the guy? If it happens to somebody that we don't know, will we help too? Or would we be bystanders and do nothing? It's scary.
To the OP: Well done man! Well done.

OK, I'm going to sound heartless for saying this but so far I haven't seen anyone mention this side of the story;
Great, you saved someone's life, but they were trying to kill themselves. And they might try again. Personally I believe it's within someone's right to kill themselves. After all, if they do it right you ain't gonna be able to save them. Yes, suicide is a selfish thing to do because it affects those around you who supposedly care about you; but like Nietzsche said; "The thought of suicide is a great consolation; by means of it one gets through many a bad night".
Sometimes, when someone has reached the very end of themselves and their abilities, what else is left?
OMG! Some orange text. It must be important.

Then don't do it on a public street. That's a cry for help. Also a 12-13 year old kid hasn't even started to live, so no matter how bad things are, they WILL change.

Respect to you Jarra, your going beyond what is needed tbh, but perhaps you can help her even more by simply being kind.
just remember one thing, the girl needs professional help and unless your a trained shrink you should perhaps not get involved beyond what you have done or already are doing. For her sake, she needs help, for your own sake you need to now walk away and let the medical pros do there work.

Yeah I probably would of averted my eyes and pretended I didn't see her as I walked by....
If you think I'm an A-hole for this...your wrong. Studies have shown thats exactly what the vast majority of people do. Its called bystander apathy. Theres even a case of a woman being stabbed to death for thirty minutes with dozens of witnesses who ignored her cries.
But good work with the being a decent person and actually stopping to help.
If you think I'm an A-hole for this...your right. This isn't an attack but rather a rebuttal.
That's cowardice and defeatism. You've swallowed this garbage and now regurgitate it like you understand half of what you suggest. You are right about one thing, you probably would have kept walking. Some men and some women haven't got what it takes. Some see the apathy in others and think it justifies it within themselves.
In the future, keep your Fruedian psycho babel to yourself. It's less than entertaining.
Bystander effect
The only thing I agree with is you being an A-hole.

I agree with your point totally,I just wanted to meet her under diffrent Circumstances,give her a hug and then be on my way and wish her the best after that.

A depressed person is in no condition to make such a decision. I am sure she still had things to live for, being only 13 years old.
And gawd the "majority does it, therefore it isn't bad" was a horrible argument.
I'll give you a better one: 1 000 000 flies can in fact be wrong, ***** aren't as tasty as they say.
