Thread: very sad news for ANZAC Day - Invercargill shooting

Mental Health Foundation Stats:

In the 2012/13 New Zealand Health Survey, one in six New Zealand adults (16%, or an estimated 582,000 adults) had been diagnosed with a common mental disorder at some time in their lives (including depression, bipolar disorder and/or anxiety disorder).


There is no way to predict a pre-disposition to mental illness in the general population.

Its no different to predicting who might break their wrist. You can't simply say the clumsy and accident prone are the most likely to.
