It might be a challenge at first, but it is a step towards breaking the negative self talk. And there is something in him that wants to remain among the !living because after months of posts he is still here with us. Only VO can start the process to make his life brighter one moment at a time. It's the to stop the blame game for it makes nothing better. Time to take some responsibility for making a better life. When I am thinking everything and everybody is treating me wrong it is usual!y 90% of me that's the problem. The first steps are often the hardest, but with earnest effort there is a good chance for positive change.
I am not being heartless. I have had my share of negative life experiences. I have been on the bottom rung of the ladder many, many times but not so much anymore.

Thanks for sharing this, but I'm right here so I'd rather you or anyone else would talk to me in 2nd person than in 3rd person.
The thing I discovered is people have allot to be blamed for one's suffering
If someone is supposed to take care of you and you are suicidal, the mistreatment is on them, not you. It doesn't make sense to place so much blame and responsibility on someone who suffers, not at all!
I know I am generalizing, not everyone chooses to hurt but there are certainly people who choose to hurt and something has to be done to stop them. This is regarding the Mental Health Police topic I opened up here some time ago.
The idea which has to be understood is, mental health is a very new field, viewing the mental state as physical as the physical body. And if the physical body has been known to be harmed by others, so can mental health be harmed by others
Think of pranks in school where a bully encourages another kid to set a fire alarm in school for the sake of pleasure, and the kid gets blamed instead of the bully. They are just kids, but like you wouldn't want a kid to physically torture someone, you wouldn't want a kid to manipulate another towards harm
Think about it. Let that sink in instead of immediately responding
I know it seems unrelated, but the suicide topic is as deep as mental health and society, and eventually they all meet in the ground water
