  • I need information (not money) to help out a friend in Switzerland. [Edited to add: they are a Swiss citizen.]

    I have a friend in Montreux (Vaud) in serious crisis. They are considering voluntary self admission to a psychiatric facility. But there are obstacles:

    - They have had terrible experiences in facilities in the past.
    - They are on disability payments and are terrified of getting stuck with a bill they can't pay that ruins their life.

    Can anyone in Montreux area recommend an appropriate facility that is guaranteed to be free and decent quality?

    Or can you recommend where to go to get information and support for someone in Vaud who is in crisis?

    This is high stakes situation, I live in a different country I don't need "let me google that for you" or random speculation, I need *reliable* information from people who know what they're talking about.

    If anyone can help, I would be deeply grateful.

    @afreytes I recall from the 2013 movie "Spiders" that "insects, like spiders"* form colonies. I don't recall if the colonial spiders hunt together though.They wouldn't film it if it wasn't true!* That is what the scientist said.

    @juliette My step mom used to teach middle school deaf cohort in a public school system alongside other teachers with hearing challenges, though she herself was hearing.The easiest answer is to write stuff down if it's important, and the second answer nobody wants is to speak more succinctly or come to terms with the fact that even hearing people are bad at paying attention. Listening takes energy, more energy with an obstacle, and while asking if you can accommodate is commendable (continues)
