If someone is seriously considering acting on their suicidal thoughts they need more than the support they can get on psychcentral. It is time for intervention by pdoc, T, or going to an emergency dept and likely going inpt.

For those members that care about the suicidal pc member it can be extremely upsetting if they post their suicidal intent and then disappear and we don't know if they went inpt or if they are dead.

There are better resources than pc when a member requires crisis intervention.
