I can understand your feeling anger if you were looking for something other than how to better deal with the thought of suicide, but I do not think the person who said that (whether for its shock value or simply to offer something to ponder beyond mere thoughts of oneself) was out-of-line in doing so. A man once told some of us he was pondering suicide and I told him I would not be attending his funeral unless he first gave me a call to say "Goodbye"...and then he gave me the call a few days later and I was able to get a Sheriff's Deputy to intervene...and now today that man is my successful son-in-law.
Would your own reaction be different today?
