    I have watched this video a couple times as I am working through my Crisis and Trauma course for school. This counselor is so wonderful. Her cadence and tone of voice is so soothing. And her body language is spot on, as well! She is so good at her job.

    The problem with these assessments is that you know exactly what they ask and the order, how they react, and what they do. So I wonder why someone who doesn’t see a future should come and confess to the same questions and advice and etc.

    In the US, the hospital is nothing more than a holding cell and you will almost certainly feel worse there. You will get almost nothing to occupy your thoughts and you’ll be sitting around for hours with only your thoughts.

      It's fine to say Thank you. But read the Growth Mindset research, you're wanting to, as much as possible, show the child how they are making decisions each step of the way, which helps build an internal locus of control where they eventually don't need to approval of others (as much).

    Right after he told the therapist that he lost his job, he then said he was tired. She responded with, “So you lost your energy.” No! He lost his job! Of course it’s bad news for anyone to loose their job, but it’s psychologically devastating for a man. We are wired to be providers, and losing the means to provide makes men feel like failures; more for some than others.

    Interesting video, but the whole prevention thing is absurd; I mean, everybody is going to die anyway, why to postpone it, right?

      @@prawnpizza Yes, you do, if it is terrible, right? I mean, life is not free of suffering. If you want something you have to work (nothing is free), also the aging process itself involves some suffering, not to mention diseases, wars, betrayals, boredom, cold, heat, tiredness, stress, dissatisfaction, etc.

      True that life involves suffering
      It’s Hope that keeps us wanting to live. A skilful counsellor can help someone rediscover Hope
