Mental Health Counselor

I think the hardest thing for a lot of people working in health care, specifically mental health, is seeing somebody that you love and that you've invested time and resources into help can fall back. And specifically the field that I'm working in, a lot of like suicidal ideation and self-harm, like seeing somebody that I love harm themself is definitely something that's really difficult. And something that I have to repeatedly tell myself is that I'm responsible to this person. I'm responsible to help keep them safe and help give them the resources that they need. But I'm not responsible for them. I'm not responsible for their actions because it's easy to blame yourself, like what more could I have done? But that's kind of my mantra. I'm responsible to but not responsible for.
