Sinead O'Connor condemns Irish State ( Archived) (245)

Jan 9, 2022 2:27 PM CST Sinead O'Connor condemns Irish State
Youcannow: To a certain degree . Yes .
The parents are responsible for the care & upbringing of their child , which defines them as adults in later life .
We don’t know what family traumas the child faced.
Authorities are there to help , but they can’t be responsible for his state of mind , nor can they be responsible for his suicide.
So .. if someone develops mental health issues it's the parents fault ..
If someone is on suicide watch in a mental health facility, and is able to leave, the hospital bear no responsibility ..

Nules: So I am I taking from your quote that every person who dies by suicide, their parents have to take the blame???
Because my husband was 41 when he died by suicide and I never blamed his mother. I didn’t even know my husband was depressed!
I do suicide bereavement support and see the pain families are left after a death by suicide, any death is bad but death by suicide has a sting like no other death.
As I have said before “walk a mile in any one’s shoes and then criticize them!”
I have met parents who would have sold their soul to help save their children but couldn’t!
I feel you have never experienced loss to mental health issues or suicide and for that I think you are lucky, please be aware that’s a fine line between sanity and insanity.
Sorry I hope I haven’t offended anyone but I do speak from the heart.
Your post is not offensive at all Nules. Love and hugs hug
You speak from the heart and deep awareness hug

Can't say the same about ycn's statements which show a distinct lack of awareness at least sigh

Well you’ve just emphasised my point .
You didn’t know that your husband was depressed & was to later commit suicide and you lived with him .
How can authorities know when someone will commit suicide.
Depression comes and goes & maybe the authorities misjudged his state of mind & thought he was in a fit state .

Do you know how depression works .
One minute people seem fine & the next , they kill themselves .
You can’t keep a young child locked up indefinitely.

He was on suicide watch. That means he is supposed to be accompanied by a mental health professional 24/7

You missed my point when stating was I to blame his mother for his suicide?
I can safely say that you take 100 people who have died by suicide about 80 of them could have be saved, with the proper care and guidance, we will never save all but there is no proper help for any mental illness and that how suicide seems the solution to a broken minds pain.

I’m not saying some can’t be saved , but what do you do to save them , other than to keep them locked up 24/7 .
dunno

They are not allowed outside the mental health facility, and as stated should be accompanied 24/7.

I know the fact that he was in a mental health facility on suicide watch.

Do you know the facts to back your statements?

Selenite: A hospital would know when someone will commit suicide because in this very case his medical notes said "SUICIDE WATCH".
Do you understand what it means?
It means a member of staff has to be watching him 24h. That means the member of staff can't even go to the toilet without having someone take over the watch. That's what "Suicide watch" means in a hospital! So if someone who is on suicide watch is able to "abscond" from hospital while they're on suicide watch, it means someone "f*cked up BIG TIME" !!!

By your comments it's pretty obvious you know nothing of the protocols hospitals put in place when they are looking after someone with a mental illness ...
thumbs up

Do you know his mental health situation?
Do you know that some people are deemed safe to go back into a normal environment, but forget , or choose not to take their medication .
Sineads son wasn’t on 24/7 care , as are a lot who escape the the net .
