You know if they section you, you won’t get better, it’s like prison. You may not feel safe there either. Your benefits will be put on hold and they won’t bully you into taking pills, they’ll force you. If your sectioned and you upset the staff that look after you daily, it would be difficult to come back from.
did the crisis line not ask to police to do a welfare/being check on you?
Agreed. It's better to take some medication and get some support from Home Treatment rather than being detained which would be much more distressing for you.
I'm alarmed to read that you've been told that you can't call for a while. Did they say how long for? They shouldn't have said that to you. It shouldn't matter how much you call the crisis team have a duty of care to you. If I were you I would complain about this as you shouldn't be pushed aside like that when you clearly require their support and care.
