That's certainly true. It's a tough one, the credentials issue.
Clinicians could reassure readers about the information they provide by providing also their credentials, but by doing so they would identify themselves and thereby make themselves easier to sue.

All speculations are not created equal. Sarcasm is rarely supportive or educational. And suicide isn't something to joke about. I've already warned you:
