Not really, when your at the point where you call them. Usually they will call 911 to get you to a hospital where you are practically imprisoned. Not helpful and very stressing on a person in the situation. But it does get their foot into the door to getting some help.

"prank calling"

Don't do that, thats really immature. What if somebody wants to call them and wants their help. But you tie up their lines with your bullshit.

probably not because the people are volunteers most times, not "trained professionals"
