Is There Any Help?

Sad news about Mindy McCready's suicide over the weekend.  I remember her hit "Guys Do It All The Time" back in the mid-'90s.  Like I told my classes, it's hard to maintain that kind of success.

That being said, it's heartbreaking that there are so many people with mental health issues that don't get the help they need.  McCready clearly had issues for years; even a stint in rehab didn't help.  Having a fiance die in the same house a month earlier obviously wasn't optimal, either.

It's too bad there's not an easy test for people to take where they could find the help they need based on the score they get.  It's never that simple, though, especially where the brain is involved.
