And btw, people who go to these extreme lengths or take harmful substances are usually already in serious distress. They’re often trying to escape unbearable pain, they already feel like they can’t go on.

If they survive, we can’t push them back toward taking these risks again. Mockery or judgment doesn’t help anyone, it only adds more harm.

The people most likely to emulate harmful behavior are usually already struggling. That’s exactly why how we speak about mental health crises matters.

Prevention isn’t just about limiting access to harmful tools, it’s also about creating an environment where people feel safe seeking help instead of being shamed.

Imagine someone with suicidal thoughts came across your post, how would it make them feel?

I only asked that we should speak with more care.

All these people seem to forget that there are other people who follow and engage with what they post online. If their followers should see it and decide to follow in their steps nko? People suddenly start dropping because of these people that have mental illnesses, and you think people will still consider their mental illnesses that have brought the demise of another?

It may come across as insensitive and I genuinely do not understand mental health illnesses, but anything that pushes you to take your life is to be questioned.
