Cognitive psychology is run by lunatics

I assume this is what the posh name is for the art of talking bollocks. It's in relation to suicide and some of the "without lived experience" models of perjoratisation of thinking, being, personality or whatever else is often slandered by their version of science.

Edwin schneidman brought forth the great leap. He pioneered the research of suicide not through observation per se but through reading suicide notes.

Of course this method is limited because many don't leave suicide notes but many do. More can be taken from that which can help than the sort of bollocks that is passed about in psychology circles.

Suicide is something you just can't understand till you want to do it. Imagine what it's like with my experience? The university of life is a harsh teacher. It is also the best.
