There is just something thats bothering me about Dr. Robby. So in my vast years of training dealing with mental health and the ending of ones own life I was always taught to ask the question outright: "Are you thinking about ki!!ing yourself?"

Its not a fun or remotely comfortable question to ask but it is a necessary one. It intention is to catch people with their guard down because most people beat around the bush or joke about the ending of ones life. Ive been asked this question and I have asked it myself.

So what is bugging me is that all of these healthcare professionals, including the psychiatrist in S.2 Ep. 14 havent asked him when there are clear signs. The five steps of intervention are literally: Ask, Be There, Help Keep Them Safe, Help Them Connect, and Follow Up
