September is National Su***de Awareness. As taboo as the subject is, Physician Su***de is perhaps even more taboo to talk about.

I suffered for years under the insurmountable familial obligations of a first generation Chinese-American. I know what it’s like to suffer under a Tiger Mom (who I love more than anyone else on the planet!). I struggled to speak up for myself and not feel guilty for doing so.
