Dr. Sharma says, "Suicide does not deserve to be studied separate and apart from depression because it is not a major cause of death in the United States. Also, we are at a point in time when there is decreased openness to talking about issues of death and dying, the meaning of suicide, and the right to take one's own life. Moreover, while "suicidal behavior disorder" is in the DSM-5 as a condition for further study, it is not officially a diagnostic category at this time" Which part of Dr. Sharma's statement is accurate?

d. We are at a point in time when there is decreased openness to talking about issues of death and dying, the meaning of suicide, and the right to take one's own life.
