I’m more of a post editor and that’s not possible on this forum so pardon the multiple post
Last point: The only people that can be saved are those that reach out, or those that are reached out too. There are far more people that flirt with suicide but ultimately live than those that die to it, and that’s because those people who live had something still tying them to this world, whether that’s something as small as a fear or death or the human survival instinct, or something like religion or concern for how it would affect their loved ones. As soon as someone is convinced with every ounce of their being to end themselves, there is almost no way to prevent it. You can’t chain them to a wall in a rubber room for the rest of their life. It’s even hard to spot at that point, because someone who has accepted their coming death appears like the prisoner marched to the gallows or the elderly person on their deathbed from an illness. There’s often a calm acceptance of their fate at that point, not a hysterical crying or what we would expect from a person on the brink
It’s the people who put feelers out and reach out that are saved, and luckily the majority of people do, for one reason or another
And this forum seems to have a lot of depressed people. Hope ya’ll feel better
