kismet,

You are correct that self-harm is {more typical} in some other DX.
However, depression has the charactoristics of feelings of unworthyness and hopelessness that can give thoughts of suicide or self-harm.
My overiding concern here in offering support to the innitiator of this thread is that the member here writes about feeling {bad}.
If someone is having a mental-health issue in their life, I do not think that they ahould be made to feel bad about posting on mental-health forum about it, including suicide ideation.
