Yeah, I think that's all it is. I remember being terrified to talk to anyone, too, but a dedicated therapist could have done wonders.
I think it's a difficult thing for someone who doesn't necessarily feel they're qualified, both legally and emotionally. They could be reprimanded if they're not qualified and they say or do certain things. Not only that, but suicide isn't a well-understood topic and they may fear that they'll try to help and do the opposite out of their own lack of understanding.
