Colleague has schizotypal personality disorder - should I advise therapy?
cperciva: Next up on Ask HN:* My colleague broke his leg - what sort of cast should I recommend?* My colleague is coughing a lot - should I tell him to take antibiotics for pneumonia?* My colleague is having chest pains - should I recommend open heart surgery?Dammit, we're miracle workers, not doctors!  (Apologies to the real McCoy.)More seriously -- if you're concerned about someone's health (mental or otherwise), feel free to politely ask if they have consulted a doctor; but please leave the diagnosis and any treatment decisions in the hands of medical professionals.
