I went back through my email and tried to reply again to your invitation, but the response I got was that I had already used that one and need to request another. So could you please send me another?Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01898073277524952683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3907440527168314545.post-36310042572046808192013-09-16T23:11:43.280-04:002013-09-16T23:11:43.280-04:00I do suicide assessments pretty much daily.

I ask at least one person a day if they want to hurt themselves or kill themselves, do they have a plan? Will they call me tomorrow, or meet with another person on my team just to check in? <br />Thank you Robin for all the great work you are doing, I know it sucks. <br /><br /><br />Janet LeMoalnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3907440527168314545.post-51473919066036496962013-09-16T22:21:43.572-04:002013-09-16T22:21:43.572-04:00Robin, so deep, so painful and yet such a beautifu...Robin, so deep, so painful and yet such a beautiful post to Josh.

I refused to keep it a secret so my kids know but my sister has never told her kids and never plans on telling them. <br />Hopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02045801745534184703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3907440527168314545.post-38084088045576861372013-09-15T21:10:48.964-04:002013-09-15T21:10:48.964-04:00Thank you!

It's absolutely not true that people who want to harm themselves can't be helped, and it's not true that medication fixes everything. We need to put more emphasis on holistic solutions, CBT/DBT, and creating communities that don't treat this illness as something to be shamed. (Just try getting even the tiniest short-term disability insurance so you can take some time for intensive counseling---oh wait, you can't.)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13791463283039660333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3907440527168314545.post-15072320786600719452013-09-15T20:20:58.404-04:002013-09-15T20:20:58.404-04:00I would be honored to read it.
