Suicide
Abstract
For 22 years I have been totally involved - without any assistance whatsoever - in activities related to the prevention of suicide and the disseminating of suicide prevention education. This paper concerns my counselling experiences in dealing with acutely suicidal persons and the general situation of suicide prevention and education in South Africa, while taking the role of the General Practitioner into consideration.
