Hi Dee.
Perhaps the councellor from emergency services was really worried about you. Perhaps she agreed with you on the phone because you were so adamant - but then started to have visions of you collapsing or something. She may have gotten really worried and decided that if she had to choose between making sure that you were ok and hoping that you were ok that she would prefer to have you alive and mad, rather than dead with an intact promise.
I think that it would be very hard to figure out how one is supposed to respond in a situation such as this. Maybe she won't make promises next time.
I do have sympathy. I have called someone who was working with me after SI once and they informed me that they were going to call an ambulance. I informed them that if they did so I would never inform them again. They called. I do not inform. Bit of a dead end situation there. But there it is...
