Dr. Carole coined the word COVICIDE to mean when fear and desperation related to coronavirus cause you to commit suicide! Unfortunately, there's a growing number of people who are driven to search for a way out because of things related to coronavirus and the draconian measures being taken in the face of it. Today, she'll talk about all the reasons a person might contemplate suicide during these times and what to do about it. You know Dr. Carole as a psychiatrist, forensic psychiatrist, author, TV personality and so on, but she also has credentials that make her an expert on coronavirus. She is not only a Board Certified Psychiatrist, with a Masters in Public Health, she’s a recipient of an NIMH Fellowship in Epidemiology for her UCLA research on how to use the media to to prevent and treat physical and mental disorders.
