Dr. Hsiung, you call yourself a psychiatrist?
What if somebody posting here is
just about ready to kill themselves
and hasn't the wits to find the number,
type the words, or call for help, and
just sees this on the screen? When
you studied psychiatry, did they tell you
that people who are sick are very suggestible,
especially suicidally depressed people?
Have you ever heard of the Jones massacre,
and Heaven's Gate?Like i said, this should be done properly
under a different file - OBITUARIES - not with
a "trigger" sign -- as if that will prevent
people who are responsible for their own actions
from reading it - they are NOT responsible for their own actions when they are sick --- that is
the main problem with mental illness -- DOH!You are irresponsible if not unprofessional.
I think you are primarily interested in collecting statistics --for whom I'm not sure.
