Pastoral Suicide
Comments by Fleur - 21 Jul 2009

I get really annoyed with this statement - "A permanent cure for a temporary problem." - it may be true for some people, but as someone who suffers from several mental illnesses (which are now controlled with medication) when I have felt suicidal in the past, it would not have cured a temporary problem - it would have cured a life long illness.

Sorry - I work in mental health now and I hear this statement so much it drives me crazy.
