One of my clients scared me today. Though really it wasn't his fault. One of my mental health clients lives quite close to me and I drive by his house when I come home. Today when driving home, I saw two police cars and an ambulance at his house. At his last hearing, the doctors reported that he was no longer a danger to himself or others, but he still thought he still needed help. When I saw the ambulance and stretcher, I was genuinely scared that he had done something to himself. I am now really glad that the court took my client seriously when he told the judge that he felt he still needed help.
When I called the police to see whether it was him, the dispatcher told me that it wasn't my client. That was a huge relief to me. I am still worried about whoever the ambulance was there for.
