The crazy yelling guy in my neighbourhood is getting quite deranged. He was sitting at a tram stop screaming incoherently at a bunch of people sitting outside at the pub for a good ten minutes or more, a cop car even drove past entirely unaware. He always sounds really hoarse and threatening, always loud, but I can barely make out what he's saying

I don't want to ask your catchment area, and these might just get you handballed around... but hopefully one of these services might prove useful or get you referred to one that is?

You could also call psych triage and see if there's anything they can advise

Edit: Sorry it's some random BPD resource but it's got all the CATT numbers for each area in one place https://www.bpdcommunity.com.au/hidden-content/is-this-a-crisis

God I'm actually starting to wonder if you live near the same tram stop I was abused at last week. I saw that yelling dude from last week at the same tram stop today, which actually is fairly close to a pub. Although he seems to be fairly understandable, just not entirely sensical
