Please Share Suffering Survey

New song from Tears for Fears! The Girl that I Call Home

 

The Organization to Prevent Intense Suffering (OPIS) has released a global survey to better understand suffering. The survey is here. (I hope you aren't in a position to be able to answer.) 

More info:

The survey is part of a project to provide a more comprehensive overview of human and non-human suffering on our planet. While pain and suffering are often evaluated numerically in clinical settings, we think this initiative is novel in the attempt to collect data across many different conditions, with a specific focus on the phenomenon of suffering. We plan to submit our findings to a scientific publication in addition to communicating them as part of the larger overview.

We would appreciate your help in filling out the survey if you are currently suffering significantly, or have in the past, from any condition or life situation. We would also appreciate your sharing it with any friends, family, acquaintances or colleagues who are suffering from a particular condition and may also be interested in contributing to this research project.


The face of intense suffering. 😎
