Oh man... You know things are bad when the Gov start killing themselves. Awful.

I think you will find the correct and appropriate term is DIES BY SUICIDE. Seriously in this day and age.

How sad. RIP Mr. Schaefer

Sad to hear this tragedy.

May he have found Salvation.

MSMWatchdog2013 Poor man. Please seek help asap if you are troubled by whats happening, resources are there. headspace MentalHealthMatters

Unfortunately this is just the start.

Asher_Wolf Sending my condolences to his loved ones & colleagues. Financial instability & income loss are likely to increase suicides during the pandemic. Reduce risk by giving PACFA,ACA,&AAFT therapists Medicare numbers & access to MBS/Telehealth rebates NOW! InThisTogether GuardianAus

RIP Mr. Schaefer :( Please let yours be the last suicide caused by coronavirus.

1. My condolences to his family, friends and colleagues. 2. If anyone is experiencing stress and trauma, please seek help. 3. please don't use the term 'committed'. This word increases the stigma that mental illness is worthy of punishment. Suicide is not a crime.

According to German law, suicide does not constitute a criminal act, so stop writing that individuals committed suicide! It’s an absolute tragedy and very sad to think that he did not feel he could deal with this situation but end his life. Condolences to his family.

Oh my god 😦

That’s so sad.

So sad

Asher_Wolf Important for you to raise awareness in Australia about how highly qualified PACFA,ACA,& AAFT therapists are excluded from using ANY of $1.1b MBS/Telehealth pkg or ANY MBS rebates. People we serve need us now more than ever. Their mental health is in danger due to this disparity.

Asher_Wolf This is so sad.

How absolutely horrible, I feel for his family and friends
