    My psych patient realizes how to kill themselves while on watch. I love my technicians but 90% of them don’t have enough attention span or intuition to catch it. The only reason I caught it that one time was because I spent my 4 years in school sitting 1:1 as a job and one of my pastimes was looking around the room and trying to figure out how I would do it. I had a patient pick probably the single method most likely to be successful actually. The look of shock on their face when I immediately snatched it was almost worth the paperwork. It would have been even cooler if I’d told them I thought of that three years prior but there was some grappling involved and I was pretty out of breath. And no, I’m not telling you what the method is, but TLDR: nobody’s beat me at this particular game just yet.
