I'm really glad to hear the help was helpful. (It isn't always helpful, but it's always worth the effort.)
The next time you feel down, I'd like you to try something: consider the fact that there are people, like me and Mt_inside, who sincerely believe you deserve compassion and respect. So if you told yourself that you aren't worthy of compassion and respect, you'd be calling us liars! Not to mention insulting one of our friends...😊

I admit that sometimes wallowing is therapeutic in itself...It's also good not to stress too much about what you should or shouldn't do. Just know you have people you can turn to when you want to get out of your own head, or for any other reason. Please don't ever feel like it's selfish to ask for help. Keeping your pain to yourself deprives the people who care about you the opportunity to lend support to a friend, and that's something that helps literally everyone.✌️

(ok I get off my soapbox now)

Lol, nice try but you're not fooling anyone--you can't be too stupid to help because you just did. Rallying people is help! Good on you--this is EXACTLY the kind of support that makes the difference. Not just between life and death, but between life being hopelessly shit and life being worth the struggle.

It's impossible to overstate the positive impact just listening to someone can have on them. It shows they're not alone, and that's huge in itself. Being there for someone can make a monumental difference when they need it, and it literally only requires being present and listening.

You're awesome dude, I wish more people were like you.

She's in a crisis.

Nooooo like what
2 ups, 1y
People have been trying to talk her off the ledge, so to speak. Check out her recent history. No idea what her actual situation is but at a minimum she could use someone to occupy some of her time.

That's the fear. Lots of people have reached out but summer hasn't responded for a few hours.

All we can do is offer support when she comes back. Can't really make a person not kill themself, least of all online. I basically challenge them to weigh their options and encourage them to broaden their typical thought processes to include far more radical possibilities than what they ususally limit themselves to. I figure if their life is forfeit there's not much reason to be scared or cause for concern over consequences, so why not do something they're terrified of, or take a crazy chance on something first. It doesn't cost anything and the final option is still always available.

Uh oh, I hope it’s not to late

Same, unfortunately hoping is about all we can do. Hope is that they discover a path forward other than suicide. I just think people get tired of reading "don't do it!" and my approach mixes it up a little. Maybe I'm playing with fire, I don't know. If someone said these things to me when I was still suicidal I think it would have helped, but that's just me.
