We're actually not a good resource for suicide support or crisis needs. There are whole communities online dedicated to helping people who are suicidal, and we feel they cover the bases pretty well. Because it's such a serious issue, we believe suicide should be taken seriously -- and that people should get local help from their community asap if they have specific suicidal thoughts and intentions.
If you want to talk about non-specific, vague suicidal thoughts, you're welcomed to start a thread in the depression forum.
You should not talk about suicide in the chat rooms, as it is simply too triggering a topic for most people to handle.
Remember, our community is not a crisis hotline, nor a substitute for real-world help with these kinds of concerns.
Thanks,
DocJohn
