Summary

This quote sarcastically highlights an issue in the healthcare system, where the doctor's advice seems callous and dismissive towards the seriousness of the situation. By suggesting a few drinks and rest to someone who attempted suicide, it critiques the lack of empathy and proper medical support for mental health concerns. The irony lies in the fact that such advice is inadequate and potentially harmful, further emphasizing the need for improved understanding and treatment of mental health.

You'll seldom experience regret for anything that you've done. It is what you haven't done that will torment you. The message, therefore, is clear. Do it!
