Suicide amongst mental health professionals

[mandeh]

I am a Psychotherapy student and I am having difficulty finding information about suicide amongst mental health professionals.

Some years ago a member posted a message relating to the high rate of depression and suicide amongst Psychiatrists. Would anyone be able to point me in the right direction to find research or empirical data to support this position? My interest is in any of those involved in mental health as professionals or trainees. It would be so helpful if you could!

Many thanks,
Mandeh
