Amid publicity campaign conducted by R. Bachelot against depression, we have a kind of grimace concept, that of INRS and X. Bertrand. Suicide is the stress! Last news!
We had already done, but every time I am surprised!
not even funny!
Anyway the propaganda of INPES is not either!
INRS, a noble research institute of the state comes released its report on the issue of suicide in connection with work. This report
INRS out in due course. That is to say when it comes to government clearance to suicide at work by appointing Philippe Nasse and Patrick Légeron rapporteurs' psychosocial risks in the business, "for the social conference between employers and unions on the suffering at work.
For those who do not understand what it means as I do, because we do not teach us to speak the language of Xavier Bertrand, it was not my language option at school, do not worry! Nothing essential will be said in this report INRS, nor during the days of prevention 2008. Because the issue of stress is completely off topic!
Stress is a way of not addressing the issues that upset.
I'm still quite impressed by the style of this soothing full text of INRS.
Yet there is a gross and massive what: suicide is at work! There he is!
But we know nothing about the matter, no epidemiological study is worthy of the name, indeed. However, this does not INRS proclaim his convictions. And what are they ?
"The glucocorticoid hypersecretion" !!!!!
I fall on the buttocks!
So if we secrete too much of this stuff, one commits suicide? Oh! And when you take it out of this thing? In an epidemiological study certainly serious?
INRS retains only a single scientific focus. This selective approach is remarkable. But it would be nice to waste time on the manner of Noam Chomsky . To study how the INRS manufactures a myth about suicide in the workplace. For
approach of INRS is very articulate:
1 - the work is stressful
2 - stress triggers depression
3 - depression leads to suicide
4 - therefore, the cause of these suicides at work, c ' is stress! Another despairing
This ideology allows INRS said quietly as:
- suicide would not work again
- suicide is "independent of social and professional status" (sic!)
It is therefore unnecessary to Funny question on this Action is work. Especially, do not think that would work cause of suicide. ...
The goal of the game, we had long understood, is hanging suicide to stress, this concept of goodwill as behaviorists Légeron to justify their intervention in business. This is certainly not enlighten us on the issue of suicide. For
INRS employs the (very) large strings. You need "appropriate treatment". You need to "assess the stress level of the enterprise." We are "only" to have an approach "effective." That the recommendations of INRS.
For me, there are enough of these simplifications, those that hide the real issues. Since suicide at work would be "no flexibility" (as INRS) why not study the conditions of freedom at work. That fixed? Who submits to it? Why submits to it? Why those fail they never overcome it?
Sophie Bialek Pierre Sidon and evoke the scandalous way in which INPES carries his campaign on depression. The waning of the discussion is the issue of suicide. They point out two reasons for the ineffectiveness of antidepressants against suicide. They were invited by Jacques Munier during his radio show " In more ways than one " culture of France, this Friday, November 9, 2007.
Here are the reasons given:
1 - antidepressants are already widely widespread. Since their huge commercial development in the 70s, they are now used for everything: against depression but also other disorders such as certain psychoses. It will not be possible to increase the distribution of a quantitative standpoint. It is useless to expect more than what they are supposed to do now.
2 - Nothing is proved with respect to the clinical effect of antidepressants against suicide risk. Specifically, the study results are contradictory. Some studies show potentially useful effects, other action of antidepressants may promote the transition to a suicidal act. Science is divided. She does not know what it is.
Personally, I think it's not because I wear a nicotine patch that I will stop (or not) smoke ...
INPES launches all-out campaign. It is a "funny" publicity on the radio in France but also in the press and television.
As I am a bit stupid, I take everything literally. Margot, age 9, for that matter. Yesterday morning, hearing the radio spot, she asks me, "so it's a disease? "
What answer?
"Well, yes, that's what they say. If you're sad, you're sick?
Thanks to INPS who knows so reassuring!
The TV spot is not more optimistic. Looks like a promotion of suicide!
