I am a suicidologist who is now in private practice on Lake Union in Seattle. For 25 years I worked with over 16,000 suicidal "patients" on the voluntary mental health unit of a public hospital in the Seattle area. What I learned from those 16,000 "teachers" taught me what I am now teaching others about the "common patterns" or "through-line" I started to recognize in all of the suicidal cases. One thing I realized was that at its core root, the primary "driver" for suicide was not about depression or mental illness -- even though depression may have been present. Not everyone with depression commits suicide just as not everyone who commits suicide has depression.
