I don't know how many members actually bother to read about non-investing articles posted here on KLSE investor but I personally do. And I have to say, I was taken aback when I read the recent article posted by Koon Yew Yin. With all due respect, KYY is a superior investor. At a delicate time like this, when stocks are falling left and right, I wish he would go back to writing about how investors should navigate the stock market. Instead, he posted an article about his deceased brother who committed suicide. The story was meant to be a reminder to those who are or could be suffering from depression to seek help but it came out all tattered around its edges. As a trained mental health practitioner, I thought the article was written in poor taste. The article lacked check and balance on how patients who are experiencing depression symptoms should seek help, the kind of help they can expect to receive and what a typical treatment process would look like. KYY painted a picture of his brother as an intelligent man who was bad at financial management and poor decision making skills when it came to choosing life partners. I don't know his brother but I thought it was unfair that his brother is unable to defend himself in this article. There were also information hinted at who his brother's children are and where they live. I am sorry to say this but I think that crosses the line of privacy for surviving family members in suicide cases. I think it is commendable that KYY wants to help those who are or could be entertaining suicidal thoughts but the right advice to those who could be experiencing depression is not to read through pointers in an article or attempt to do self-help when they are at the brink of suicide - rather, they should seek out and talk to someone qualified who can walk them through what they are experiencing in the Here and Now. If they are unwilling to go to a clinic or hospital to see a mental health professional and has no one to talk to, please pick up the phone and call the Befrienders 24-hour hotline at 03-79568144/45.
