  1. Where to Find Mental Health Support in Thailand While staying in Thailand, expats can seek mental health support from services such as free suicide hotlines by the Samaritans and dedicated mental health hospitals such as Manarom Hospital or Bangkok Mental Health Hospital. Samaritans If you’re feeling depressed, lonely, or suicidal, the Samaritans of Thailand have an English hotline that you can call daily at 02 113 6789 (Press 2). This free service gives you access to staff who are trained in suicide prevention, though you don’t have to be suicidal to benefit from the hotline. Simply talking to someone can make a big difference, especially someone who is trained to listen carefully while you share your problems. Once you leave a voicemail on the English hotline, a staff member will call you back within 24 hours. You don’t have to give your real name since the service is anonymous. Bangkok Hospital Bangkok Hospital is one of the hospitals in Thailand with dedicated mental health services and facilities for a wide range of mental health care, including inpatient care, outpatient care, day programs, and counseling. The Bangkok Mental Health Rehabilitation and Recovery Center (BMRC) at Bangkok Hospital focuses on treating, diagnosing, and rehabilitating patients with mental health issues. Manarom Hospital Manarom Hospital is a leading private hospital that specializes in mental and behavioral healthcare in Thailand. The hospital offers a wide variety of mental health services, including adult psychiatry and day programs for individuals and groups.

Psychological Services International (PSI) PSI is a Bangkok-based mental health provider that has been offering counseling, therapy, and assessment services to expats since 2001.

  2. Does anyone else use cayenne pepper in their diet? I've been a big fan for the past year. I sprinkle it on nearly all my food dishes. Blood pressure reading in March 2023 was 161/108. A few weeks ago 114/74. Haven't really changed anything else. I do very little exercise but have been trying to eat a healthy diet for the past 5 years.

  8. Is your Pink ID number shown on your driving licences? They wanted to see my passport and inserted that number as 'ID No.'
  9. https://sg.news.yahoo.com/british-man-punched-air-steward-202030730.html The Metropolitan Police said: “Christopher McSheffrey, 35, of Sutton Coldfield was charged on suspicion of grievous bodily harm and endangering an aircraft on 8 February. “McSheffrey remains in custody and is due to appear at Isleworth Crown Court on February 29.” Anyone read a follow up news report?
  10. The first thing I noticed looking at the OP and a new price list is that it still has multiple entry tourist visas quoted. If this is upto date, I thought that the METV are no longer available? So I don't believe any of the new prices.
