Rules

  1. try to label triggering content and hide it behind a spoiler. In general at least make sure you hide mentions of suicide, self harm, violence, and sexual content.
  2. Don't discuss specific plans to injure or kill yourself or others. Discussion of general ideation is acceptable. Got something AWFUL to say? Try c/VoidScreaming
  3. Avoid requesting or giving medical advice beyond personal experience. Describing how you personally managed a medication side effect, for instance, is fine.

Yes I do have that kind of experience, also while working in a leadership position. They don't openly tell you, but you know. So it becomes very hard to talk about mistakes in general. But they happen of course. And I feel like this kind of "management behaviour" has increased in recent years. But that's a different topic :)

Thanks for sharing. Over here there is an active movement toward a more mentally healthy approach to work. It will take a long while to fully get there I would say, but at least it is a start.
