Our guideline states -
Quote:
Inappropriate Content- Messages containing suicidal threats or suicidal actions

A threat would be along the lines of "I'm done, tonight's the night" or "Goodbye cruel world, I won't be back PC".
If you are discussing that you are wondering why you should continue....that leaves the door open for conversation and support. See the difference?  |
There's some more discussion in that thread --
Rules and Administration > RE: suicidal posts.
When a member is looking for support with suicidal thoughts and feelings, we usually suggest that they post in the
Depression forum.
