Was amazing and rewarding until things took a turn - Crisis Worker The Trevor Project Employee Review

Different job than anyone expects going in, not very many contacts are actually suicidal, lots of people masturbating or prank calling, lots of others who call multiple times every night. Suicide rates are much higher now than when the organization started and its goal is to end suicide among LGBTQ+ youth, so you have to lie to yourself if you want to believe that you're actually helping; for every one person you actually help there are 5 more that you are enabling or positively reinforcing things for them that are actually damaging to reinforce.
